Chapter 1564: with translation of chapter title
Professor Rudolf Wagner was stunned.
Translation: Professor Rudolf Wagner was stunned.
But we need to use "Professor Rudolf" per the glossary? Actually the glossary says Professor Rudolf → Professor Rudolf. However the full name is Professor Rudolf Wagner. The glossary provides Rudolf Wagner as the original term for the person. For the title, we have Professor Rudolf. Should we translate it as "Professor Rudolf Wagner was stunned"? That uses both. The glossary says to use the exact English forms for named entities. For the professor title we have Professor Rudolf. But we also have Rudolf Wagner as the name. Likely we should combine: Professor Rudolf Wagner. That seems fine.
Cerebellar agenesis?
Translation: Cerebellar agenesis? Actually cerebellar agenesis means cerebellar agenesis (absence of cerebellum). Keep as "Cerebellar agenesis?" Might be "Lack of cerebellum?" But we should convey the meaning. Use "Cerebellar agenesis?" That's fine.
