Jenő Kovács (1910-1990)

Professor of Pharmacology and Toxicology.

As a pioneer of pharmacological treatment of diseases connected to large scale livestock farming – such as, for example, iron deficiency anaemia in suckling pigs and coli diarrhoea in calves – he was the first to apply new chemotherapeutic medication against infectious diseases in veterinary practice.

He was Rector of the University of Veterinary Medicine Budapest between 1963 and 1966.
