Louis Pasteur (1822-1895) was a French chemist and microbiologist who revolutionized medicine through discoveries in vaccination, microbial fermentation, and pasteurization, named after him. He disproved spontaneous generation, established the germ theory of disease, developed vaccines for anthrax and rabies, and founded the Pasteur Institute in 1887, laying foundations for modern bacteriology, hygiene, and public health while saving millions of lives.
