Abstract The Medicinae Alumni Vitebergenses project maintains a prosopographical database of standardized, machine-readable short biographies of all Wittenberg medical students between 1502 and 1648, along with their printed works. Selected works are indexed with keywords and summarized with the aim of visualizing Wittenberg’s influence on the development and dissemination of a specifically Protestant medicine. The database does not view early modern physicians as isolated scholars, but rather attempts to trace possible social and intellectual influences. In this way, it can provide new impulses for research on Sennert in particular, since Sennert’s relationship to his teachers has not been sufficiently researched. The database provides this information by automatically tracing teacher – student relationships, constructing networks, and creating comparable publication and teaching profiles. As this is an ongoing project, this article provides insights into ongoing research that will not be accessible before October 2025.
