This is a commemorative website for Joseph Lister who many refer to as the Father of Modern Surgery and Antiseptics. Through lots of hard work and experiments he was able to make surgery safer. Thanks to his father's contributions to science, Lister began his trip to the top of the science world as a child. He grew up as a Quaker and attended the University of London and Royal College of Surgeons. He would eventually become one of the top surgeons in the world thanks to his use of antiseptics.
