http://www.nobel.se/medicine/laureates/1939/domagk-bio.html
Gerhard Johannes Paul Domagk was born on October 30, 1895, at Lagow, a beautiful, small town in the Brandenburg Marches. Until he was fourteen he went to school in Sommerfeld, where his father was assistant headmaster. His mother, Martha Reimer, came from farming stock in the Marches, where she lived in Sommerfeld until 1945 when she was expelled from her home; she died from starvation in a refugee camp.
Domagk himself was, from the age of 14, at school in Silesia until he reached the upper sixth form. He then became a medical student at Kiel and, when the 1914-1918 War broke out, he served in the Army, and in December 1914 was wounded. Later he was sent to join the Sanitary Service and served in, among other places, the cholera hospitals in Russia. During this time he was decisively impressed by the helplessness of the medical men of that time when they were faced with cholera, typhus, diarrhoeal infections and other infectious diseases. He was especially strongly influenced by the fact that surgery had little value in the treatment of these diseases and even amputations and other forms of radical treatment were often followed by severe bacterial infections, such as gas gangrene.
In 1923 he moved to Greifswald and there became, in 1924, University Lecturer in Pathological Anatomy. In 1925 he held the same post in the

Domagk, Gerhard
Domagk, c. Archiv fur Kunst und Geschichte, Berlin Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for his discovery (announced in 1932) of the antibacterial effects of Prontosil , the first of the sulfonamide drugs. Domagk earned a medical degree from the University of Kiel in 1921. After teaching at the universities of Greifswald (1924) and Munich (1925), he became director of the I.G. Farbenindustrie (Bayer) Laboratory for Experimental Pathology and Bacteriology, Wuppertal-Elberfeld. There, inspired by the ideas of Paul Ehrlich , he began testing newly developed dyes for their possible effects against various infections. He noticed the antibacterial action of one of the dyes against streptococcal infection in mice. The dye, Prontosil red, was then tried clinically against streptococcal infections in humans with great success. The active component of Prontosil turned out to be sulfanilamide, which became another important sulfa drug. Unable to accept the Nobel award at the time because of Nazi German policy, Domagk later (1947) received the gold medal and diploma. He also was active in research on tuberculosis and cancer.

    Gerhard Domagk Gerhard Domagk was born in 1895 in Lagow, Brandenburg, as the son of a teacher. At the age of 20, Domagk - who would later go on to win a Nobel Prize - was confronted with the supposed limits of medicine through his experiences in World War I. At that time, operations that were initially successful were often marred by fatal infectious diseases such as gangrene or gas gangrene. The antiseptic properties of the then-common substances chlorine water and carbolic acid did not last long enough to effectively combat these diseases. In 1914 Domagk received his diploma from the upper secondary school in Liegnitz and began a course of study in human medicine at the University of Kiel in the same year. After having to interrupt his studies for a time due to the war, he received his doctorate in 1921. His post-doctoral qualification was obtained in 1924 at the Pathological Institute of the University of Greifswald.
    In 1927 the attention of Professor Heinrich Hoerlein was drawn to Domagk's post-doctoral thesis entitled "Destroying infectious diseases through the reticuloendothelium and the development of amyloid." He recruited the young scientist to the pharmaceutical department in Elberfeld.

    Biography
    Gerhard Domagk
    I.G. Farbenindustrie AG (1925-1945) A community of interests had already existed between Bayer, BASF and Agfa since 1905. In order to regain access to the vital export markets, these and other companies of the German tar dyes industry joined together in a larger community of interests in 1915/16 on the initiative of Carl Duisberg
    Merger into I.G. Farbenindustrie AG Once the global economy stabilized in the mid-20s, it became clear that the German dyestuffs industry would be unable to regain its old position in the world market. In order to remain competitive and gain access to new markets, the companies belonging to the community of interests decided to merge in 1925. Bayer transferred its assets to I.G. Farbenindustrie AG (I.G.) and was deleted from the commercial register as a company.
    Yet the Bayer tradition lived on in the I.G.'s Lower Rhine operating consortium, which consisted of the Leverkusen, Dormagen and Elberfeld sites, as well as the Uerdingen site of Chemische Fabriken vorm. Weiler-ter Meer. Leverkusen also became the headquarters for the I.G.'s pharmaceutical sales association, and the Bayer Cross was used as the trademark for all of the I.G.'s pharmaceutical products.
