En savoir plus sur le livre
Lucie Adelsberger (1895-1971) was a specialist in pediatrics and internal medicine. In Berlin, she ran her own practice, primarily treating patients with allergic conditions, which also fueled her scientific interest in allergies. From 1927 to 1933, she worked at the Robert Koch Institute in the newly established observation center for hypersensitivity reactions. The Nazis revoked her medical license and approval. Despite an offer from the medical faculty at Harvard, she chose to stay with her ailing mother and continued caring for her patients. In May 1943, she was deported to Auschwitz, where she was forced to work as a prisoner doctor in the "Gypsy and Women's Camp" at Birkenau. Shortly before the war ended, she was liberated from a sub-camp of Ravensbrück. In 1946, Lucie Adelsberger emigrated to the USA. In New York, she worked as a physician and researcher in cancer research until her death. Her memories of Auschwitz serve as a poignant document of the Holocaust.
