ALVAREZ ALDANA, Dagoberto y RODRIGUEZ BEBERT, Yuliet. Doctor Guillermo García López (1905-1956), a great cuban diabetologist. Rev Cubana Endocrinol [online]. 2004, vol.15, n.2. ISSN 1561-2953.
With this brief biographical profile we intend to outline some data on professor Guillermo García López (1905-1956), an outstanding but almost unknown doctor, and to highlight his professional work in the assistance, teaching and scientific field in our country, that makes him one of the most important Cuban diabetologists. We consulted the medical bibliography of that time, archives, records and other sources as part of this research. Doctor Guillermo García López made more than 50 medical contributions that were published in prestigious journals in Cuba and abroad. He stood out for his studies on infantile diabetes, as it was called in those years, the best insulin combinations, the use of NPH insulin, adrenocorticotropic hormones (ACTH) and cortisone, among others.
