David Bruce, M.D. (1855–1931) Bruce described the bacteria responsible for causing disease in cattle (Brucella melitensis) and correctly identified both the vector (tsetse fly) and the protozoan parasite it transmits to cattle (nagana) as a trypanosome, later named after him (Trypanosoma brucei). His discovery soon led to the identification of two other trypanosomes, Trypanosoma brucei gambiense, and T. b. rhodesiense, as the causative agents of African sleeping sickness in humans.
