German term or phrase: MMW - Fortschritte der Medizin
Weiß jemand wofür MMW steht? Es handelt sich hierbei um den Titel einer Zeitschrift für den Bereich Medizin. Ich übersetze einen Artikel aus der Zeitschrift. Ich bin der Meinung, dass Namen von Zeitschriften nicht übersetzt werden sollten. Was meint ihr?

Explanation:
I agree with you that the title has to remain in German, but a loose translation in brackets is usually a good idea.

As a founder and editor of the Bayerisches ärztliches intelligenzblatt (Bavarian Medical Information Newspaper), renamed the Münchner Medizinische Wochenschrift (Munich Medical Weekly Journal) in 1886, he guided the publication to a central position in a medical community just developing professional status.
