Professor Roger Wyburn-Mason, M.D., Ph.D. -- author of several important medical textbooks and a renown specialist in nerve diseases, honored by having two nerve diseases named after him during his lifetime -- along with Vice Admiral Stamm, a world-class protozoologist -- came to the conclusion from their experimental work that a common Limax amoeba was responsible for about 100 differently named collagen tissue diseases, including Rheumatoid Arthritis, Scleroderma, Psoriasis, and many other named diseases.
