Some Famous People called Frank Schofield
Frank Schofield
Frank W. Schofield (1889–1970) was a British-born Canadian veterinarian who graduated in 1910 from the Ontario Veterinary College, then in Toronto. He lived in Korea from 1916 to 1920, where he taught at the Severance Hospital Medical School and became involved in the Korean independence movement against the Japanese Empire. In 1920, he returned to his teaching position at the Ontario Veterinary College, first in Toronto and later in Guelph, Ontario.
Schofield elucidated the etiology and pathology of moldy sweet clover poisoning, which led to the discovery of the anticoagulant warfarin.
After his retirement from OVC in 1955, he returned to Korea and taught at the Veterinary College of Seoul National University. He died in Seoul in 1970 and was buried in the Korean National Cemetery, the first foreigner to be so honored.
