_"Wegener joined the Nazi Party in 1932. Specifically, he was a member of the Sturmabteilung, a paramilitary branch of the Nazi party that participated in violent conflicts.As a relatively high-ranking military physician, he spent some of World War II in a medical office three blocks from the ?ód? Ghetto, a Jewish ghetto in ?ód?, Poland. He conducted autopsies on Jewish concentration camp inmates and the facility he worked in performed experiments on prisoners.There is no direct evidence of active participation of Wegener in these human experiments, but it is likely he was aware of them._
_In 1936, Friedrich Wegener described the disease that once bore his name, Wegener disease, as systemic disorder characterized by aseptic vasculitis granulomatous inflammation and vasculitis After revelations about his Nazi Party past became common knowledge, the disease has been referred to as Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (GPA)The American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) awarded Wegener a master clinician prize in 1989. After his Nazi past was discovered in 2000, the ACCP rescinded the prize and campaigned to rename Wegener's granulomatosis to ANCA-associated granulomatous vasculitis"_
