Muller was a mentor to many scientists of his age, many of whom would go on to make trail-blazing discoveries of their own. Among them were Theodor Schwann, who demonstrated that all animals are made of cells; Hermann Helmholtz, who measured the velocity of nerve impulses; and Rudolf Virchow, who convinced doctors to think of disease at the cellular level. This book tells Muller's story by interweaving it with that of seven of his most famous students. Muller suffered from depression and insomnia at the same time as he was doing his most important scientific work, and may have committed suicide at age 53. Like Muller, his most prominent students faced personal and social challenges as they practiced cutting-edge science. Virchow was fired for his political activism, Jakob Henle was jailed for membership in a dueling society, and Robert Remak was barred from Prussian universities for refusing to renounce his Orthodox Judaism. By recounting these stories, Muller's Lab explores the ways in which personal life can affect scientists' professional choices, and consequently affect the great discoveries they make. 606 $aAnatomists$zGermany$vBiography 606 $aPhysiologists$zGermany$vBiography 606 $aLife sciences$zGermany$xHistory$y19th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aAnatomists 615 0$aPhysiologists 615 0$aLife sciences$xHistory 676 $a611/.0092 700 $aOtis$b Laura$f1961-$0759923 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451724903321 996 $aMu?ller's lab$92009993 997 $aUNINA
