Karl Gottlieb Grell
Karl Gottlieb Grell (28 December 1912, Burg an der Wupper – 4 October 1994) was a German zoologist and protistologist, famous for his work on ''Trichoplax''. Karl Grell received in 1934 his doctorate (Promotion) from the University of Bonn, where he wrote his dissertation on the digestive tract of the common scorpionfly (''Panorpa communis''). Subsequently, he worked primarily on unicellular eukaryotes and the metazoan Placozoa. During WW II, he was assigned to an anti-malarial unit in southeast Europe. At the University of Tübingen, Grell was a professor of zoology, teaching protozoology and genetics. He led excursions to study marine protozoa. Grell published in 1956 the first edition of his textbook ''Protozoologie'', which was followed by a German language 2nd edition in 1968 and a 3rd edition (1st English edition) in 1973. From 1959 to 1983 he was a co-editor for the ''Archiv for Protistenkunde''. In addition to his work on ''Trichoplax'', he was known for his research ...

Burg An Der Wupper
Burg Castle (german: Schloss Burg), located in Burg an der Wupper ( Solingen), is the largest reconstructed castle in North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany and a popular tourist attraction. Its early history is closely connected to the rise of the Duchy of Berg. Early history At the beginning of the 12th century (after 1133), Count Adolf III of Berg built Schloss Burg on a mountain overlooking the river Wupper. The old castle of the counts, Castle Berge in Odenthal near Altenberg, was abandoned. The original name of the new castle was Castle Neuenberge (Newmountain), or in Latin, novus mons, novum castrum, or novi montis castrum. Not until the 15th century, after significant reconstruction as a hunting castle, did it receive its current name reflecting its palatial extension. His great-grandson, Count Adolf VI of Berg took part in the Fifth Crusade and died during the siege of Damietta in Egypt in 1218. Since the late count had no male descendants his younger brother, Archbishop En ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Max Hartmann
Max Hartmann (7 June 1876 – 11 October 1962) was a German biologist, alluded to in the book ''Phylogenetic Systematics'' by Willi Hennig for his investigations into divisions of sciences, most notably into descriptive and explanatory. He was a philosopher of science and the author of ''Allgemeine Biology''. The publicly available abstract of an article in ''Nature'' Magazine (1946) presents him as a student of the sexuality and fertilization in Protozoa and Algae; that "he can look back upon a fine record of original research... His investigations of ‘relative sexuality’ hich Ij ( fa, ايج, also Romanized as Īj; also known as Hich and Īch) is a village in Golabar Rural District, in the Central District of Ijrud County, Zanjan Province, Iran Iran, officially the Islamic Republic of Iran, and also ...have led to very important biochemical studies of the substances produced and released by gametes and essential for fertilization in Algae, echinoderms, ...

University Of Tübingen Faculty
A university () is an institution of higher (or tertiary) education and research which awards academic degrees in several academic disciplines. Universities typically offer both undergraduate and postgraduate programs. In the United States, the designation is reserved for colleges that have a graduate school. The word ''university'' is derived from the Latin ''universitas magistrorum et scholarium'', which roughly means "community of teachers and scholars". The first universities were created in Europe by Catholic Church monks. The University of Bologna (''Università di Bologna''), founded in 1088, is the first university in the sense of: *Being a high degree-awarding institute. *Having independence from the ecclesiastic schools, although conducted by both clergy and non-clergy. *Using the word ''universitas'' (which was coined at its foundation). *Issuing secular and non-secular degrees: grammar, rhetoric, logic, theology, canon law, notarial law.Hunt Janin: "The university ...

Foraminifera
Foraminifera (; Latin for "hole bearers"; informally called "forams") are single-celled organisms, members of a phylum or class of amoeboid protists characterized by streaming granular Ectoplasm (cell biology), ectoplasm for catching food and other uses; and commonly an external shell (called a "Test (biology), test") of diverse forms and materials. Tests of chitin (found in some simple genera, and Textularia in particular) are believed to be the most primitive type. Most foraminifera are marine, the majority of which live on or within the seafloor sediment (i.e., are benthos, benthic), while a smaller number float in the water column at various depths (i.e., are planktonic), which belong to the suborder Globigerinina. Fewer are known from freshwater or brackish conditions, and some very few (nonaquatic) soil species have been identified through molecular analysis of small subunit ribosomal DNA. Foraminifera typically produce a test (biology), test, or shell, which can have eithe ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Max Planck Institute For Biology
The Max Planck Institute for Biology is located in Tübingen, Germany, and has been re-established in January 2022. The Kaiser Wilhelm Society, the predecessor organization of the Max Planck Society, established various natural science research institutes in the Berlin district of Dahlem in the beginning of the 20th century. Among them was the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute for Biology. The main aim of the newly established institutes was to supplement the universities and academies with research in the natural sciences and thus also to keep Germany internationally competitive. In the following decades, scientists there and at the Institute of Biochemistry realized the importance of viruses as model organisms for understanding biological processes. Thus, they establish a working group in the field of virus research.In 1941, Nobel Prize winner Adolf Butenandt, together with his colleagues Alfred Kühn and Fritz von Wettstein, set up their own working group for virus research.

Lemuel Roscoe Cleveland
Lemuel Roscoe Cleveland (14 November 1892, Newton County, Mississippi – 12 February 1969) was an American zoologist and protistologist, famous for giving the first, strong empirical proof for the existence of a symbiotic relationship between internal microorganisms and their metazoan host. Cleveland received in 1917 his B.S. from the University of Mississippi, where he spent one year as a graduate student and instructor. After a brief period of military service, he taught for two years at Emory University and then for one year at Kansas State College. He then became a graduate student at Johns Hopkins University, where he in 1923 received a Ph.D. and from 1923 to 1925 held a National Research Council Fellowship at the Johns Hopkins School of Hygiene and Public Health. From 1925 to 1936 Cleveland worked at the School of Tropical Medicine of Harvard Medical School. From 1936 to 1959 he worked at the Biology Department of Harvard University, where he became a full professor in 1946 a ...
