I've changed the text associated with the Wikilink to the European University Viadrina to get around a problem of history: the university that supported Siegemund was the old university, which moved to Breslau in 1811, after which there was no university in Frankfurt. A new university was founded 180 years later with no real academic or administrative connection to the previous, although seeing itself as a rebirth of the old tradition. The German Wikipedia differentiates between these two universities absolutely, giving them two separate articles. It refers to the European University Viadrina as having been "founded in 1991" which makes the claim that the European University Viadrina supported the work of Siegemund absurd. No doubt the modern univeristy would have, but they arrived on the scene nearly 300 years too late! We don't have separate articles here, so we still need to point to the article using the modern name, which covers the old University too, but I think it valuable to use wording that distinguishes these two institutions.

In the first paragraph, it says, "[...] the first published medical text in German, written by a woman." Does that mean "[...] the first published medical text in German that was written by a woman"? If so, then either lose the comma, or replace the comma with "that was". Or does it mean "[...] the first published medical text in German. Incidentally, it was written by a woman." If it means the latter, then it seems awkward to arbitrarily call out the sex of the author (in the same way that it seems awkward to call out anyone's age, sex, or race when it's not relevant).
