Andrew Conway Ivy

Andrew Conway Ivy (February 25, 1893 – February 7, 1978) was appointed by the American Medical Association as its representative at the 1946 Nuremberg Medical Trial for Nazi doctors.
Born in Farmington, Missouri, Ivy grew up in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. His father was a science professor and his mother was a teacher. Ivy trained in medicine and physiology in Chicago and taught at Northwestern University before becoming vice president of the University of Illinois, being responsible for the medicine, dentistry and pharmacy schools. From 1939 to 1941 he was president of the American Physiological Society. According to author Jonathan Moreno, by the end of the war he was probably the most famous doctor in the country. He was author of the Green report.
When Ivy testified at the 1946 Nuremberg Medical Trial for Nazi war criminals, he misled the trial about the Green report, in order to strengthen the prosecution case: Ivy stated that the committee had debated and issued the report, when the committee had not met at that time.
His reputation collapsed after 1949 when he steadfastly supported 'Krebiozen', an alleged cancer drug with no known beneficial effects.
