Nikolai Vasilyevich Sklifosovsky (Russian: Николáй Васильевич Склифосóвский; 6 April [O.S. 25 March] 1836 — 13 December [O.S. 30 November] 1904) was a Russian surgeon and physiologist of Ukrainian origin. He was born near the town of Dubasari, which is now in Transnistria. Sklifosovsky was a professor of medicine in Saint Petersburg and Kiev. The Moscow Institute of Emergency First Aid, often abbreviated as Sklif, bears his name since 1923.
