Notities over Jan Roelof Prakken

Jan Roelof Prakken (1897-1982) appointed in 1946 was, like Carol, an example of a dermatologist whose excellent diagnostic skills led him to be mainly clinically orientated. Nevertheless, he also saw that greater attention to the physiology of the skin could be the basis for an improved understanding of dermatological diseases. At his inaugural address he spoke on “Functional disturbances in skin diseases”. Continuing with tradition, Prakken published his dermatological textbook in 1963, having already published a venereological textbook in 1948. Typical of his management style, Prakken preferred staff members who held part-time positions in non-academic city outpatient clinics, alongside their part- time position at the University Clinic. Less concerned with research in familiar areas, he promoted diversity and the individual interests of his staff members. On his appointment, the clinic was in a particularly poor and outdated condition, with beds numbering to 100, divided into wards of sometimes more than 20. Although Prakken complained about this in his inaugural address, it was not until 1966 that the clinic was relocated to the Binnengasthuis, where the former obstetrician department was completely renovated to suit its new purpose. Shortly after this move, Prakken retired.
