Medicinal Chemistry School - Iatrochemical School

Japanese: 医化学派 - いかがくは（英語表記）iatrochemical school

This refers to a school of thought that attempted to explain pathological conditions and physiological phenomena in the human body chemically. It emerged in the 17th and 18th centuries, and is a term used in contrast to the school of medical physics. Representative figures include JB Helmont, F. Sylvius, and J. Mayo. Words such as gas and fermentation were coined by the school of medical chemistry, and this school became the foundation of modern chemistry.
