Abstract
The careers of William Ophuls (1871-1933), Myrnie Gifford (1892-1966), Charles Edward Smith (1904-1967) and William A. Winn (1903-1967) are briefly reviewed, with emphasis on their contributions to knowledge of Coccidioides and coccidioidomycosis. All were students with broad interests, and all were quite willing to suggest new concepts and classifications to replace those of their predecessors.
简要回顾了William Ophuls (1871-1933), Myrnie Gifford (1892-1966), Charles Edward Smith(1904-1967)和William A. Winn(1903-1967)的职业生涯,重点介绍了他们对球虫和球虫真菌病知识的贡献。他们都是兴趣广泛的学生,而且都非常愿意提出新的概念和分类来取代前人的概念和分类。
