dc.description <p>University reform was carried out in Turkiye in 1933. Many people of</p><p>Jewish heritage, opposition doctors, and others who had fled Nazi persecution</p><p>in Europe sought safety in Turkiye between 1933 and the end of World</p><p>War II. Having examined the relevant official state archive documents, we,</p><p>as our main objective, aimed to share the information obtained about immigrant</p><p>physicians and scientists who worked at Istanbul University, contributing</p><p>to establishing the Faculty of Medicine from 1933 until the end</p><p>of World War II.</p><p>The study was designed as a qualitative-multiple document analysis. Documents</p><p>found by scanning the catalog of the Turkish Presidency State Archives</p><p>Republic Archive Catalog were examined. In addition, other publications</p><p>on the subject have been read.</p><p>Seventeen original archival documents on physicians and other scientists</p><p>who fled Nazi Germany and took refuge in Turkiye are examined. The</p><p>names of 16 physicians and scientists are mentioned in the documents.</p><p>They worked at the institute, clinic, School of Dentistry, and School of</p><p>Pharmacists incorporated in the Faculty of Medicine. In addition to the</p><p>advantages Turkiye provided for the scientists who took refuge, the country</p><p>made it simple for their relatives to move and live there. Some of these</p><p>scientists even acquired Turkish citizenship.</p><p>It is found that immigrant physicians and scientists who took refuge in</p><p>Turkiye have made a significant contribution to the development of Turkish</p><p>medical education and medicine.</p>
