Klaus Joachim Zülch's research on the pathology and biology of brain tumors made him one of the outstanding scholars and clinicians in the fields of neurology and neuropathology in the Federal Republic of Germany. The World Health Organization (WHO) drew on his results when laying down its classification. In the years 1961-1962 he was president of the German Neurological Society (DGN), in 1978 he became an honorary member and in 1984 honorary president. In addition to the Zülch Award of the Max Planck Society, the DGN organizes a Zülch lecture at its annual meetings. Archive documents revealed that he was an early adherent of the ideology of National Socialism. He was a member of paramilitary units, joined the SA storm troopers in 1933 and the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP) in 1937. After having studied under Otfrid Foerster in Breslau and Georg Schaltenbrand in Würzburg he served as a military physician and in army hospitals during and after WWII. Nevertheless, he continued his investigations at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Brain Research with Wilhelm Tönnis. In July 1947 he was dismissed on account of his SA membership but entered an objection to this decision of the Allies. After a lengthy denazification trial he succeeded in being exonerated. This was also due to attestations written in his favor by various neuroscientists. Hence, he could pursue his career in Cologne and from 1959 onwards he acted as director of the newly established department of general neurology of the Max Planck Institute and simultaneously as head of the department for clinical neurology at Cologne-Merheim hospital. The juxtaposition of a CV written by Zülch himself around 1938 with another one composed after the war shows that he tried to conceal incriminating facts and partly reconstructed a new and ultimately successful biography.
克劳斯·约阿希姆·聚尔希对脑肿瘤病理学和生物学的研究，使他成为德意志联邦共和国神经病学和神经病理学领域杰出的学者和临床医生之一。世界卫生组织（WHO）在制定其分类标准时借鉴了他的研究成果。1961年至1962年期间，他担任德国神经病学学会（DGN）主席，1978年成为荣誉会员，1984年成为荣誉主席。除了马克斯·普朗克学会的聚尔希奖外，DGN在其年会上组织聚尔希讲座。档案文件显示，他早年是纳粹主义意识形态的追随者。他是准军事部队成员，1933年加入冲锋队，1937年加入纳粹德国工人党（NSDAP）。在布雷斯劳跟随奥特弗里德·福斯特以及在维尔茨堡跟随格奥尔格·沙尔滕布兰德学习后，他在二战期间及战后担任军医并在军队医院工作。尽管如此，他仍在威廉皇帝脑研究所与威廉·托尼一起继续他的研究。1947年7月，他因冲锋队成员身份被解雇，但对盟军的这一决定提出了异议。经过漫长的去纳粹化审判，他成功被免罪。这也得益于多位神经科学家为他写的有利证明。因此，他能够在科隆继续他的职业生涯，从1959年起，他担任马克斯·普朗克研究所新成立的普通神经病学系主任，同时担任科隆 - 梅尔海姆医院临床神经学系主任。聚尔希本人在1938年左右写的一份简历与战后撰写的另一份简历并列显示，他试图隐瞒有罪事实，并部分重构了一个最终成功的新传记。
