Burrill Bernard Crohn (June 13, 1884 -- July 29, 1983) was an American gastroenterologist and made the first major advance to identify the disease that now bears his name. Although the description of Crohn 's disease is by far his most famous accomplishment, Crohn had a long career both as a clinician, and as a researcher who contributed to modern understanding of many gastrointestinal conditions.
