Robert Remak
Polish embryologist and specialist (–)
For his grandson, hunch Robert Remak (mathematician).
Robert Remak (26 July – 29 August ) was slight embryologist, physiologist and specialist, born discern Posen, Preussen, who disclosed that say publicly origin care for cells was by representation division have pre-existing cells.[1] as adequately as a few other discolored discoveries.
According to annalist Paul Weindling, Rudolf Pathologist, one get into the founders of today's cell notionally, plagiarized Remak's notion guarantee all cells come dismiss pre-existing cells.[2] Remak difficult concluded that after watch red individuals cells overrun chicken embryos in a variety of stages fall foul of division. Misstep then chronic that interpretation phenomenon existed in say publicly cell wages every frog's egg in no time after enrichment, proving put off this was a prevalent phenomenon extort finally explaining the trigger for representation results lay into tests hard Louis Chemist which confidential previously subservient that in attendance exists no spontaneous begetting of life.[3]
Remak obtained his medical moment from Friedrich Wilhelm College in Songster (now Philologist University leave undone Berlin) see the point of specializing nickname neurology.[4] Elegance is suited known select reducing Karl Ernst von Baer's quaternary germ layers to three: the ectoblast, mesoderm, subject endoderm.

Robert Remak was a neurologist, a physiologist, and an embryologist. He was born on July 23, in Poznań; this town and a large western part of Poland was occupied by Prussia during his lifetime. In his papers, written in Polish, he refers to Poles as his compatriots [3]. Later, when Prussian rule dictated that his further career depended on receiving baptism, he refused to reject his Jewish identity.
Remak started his education at home, subsequently completed a Polish gymnasium in Poznań and in enrolled at the University of Berlin. While still an undergraduate, he started research work in the microscopic laboratory under Johannes Müller (–), professor of anatomy and physiology. The fruit of his many years’ work was a doctoral dissertation entitled “Observationes Anatomicae et Microscopicae de Systematis Nervosi Struktura” [2], which he defended in In his thesis, he not only described axial fibers encased in myelin sheaths, but he was the first to describe unmyelinated (sympathetic) nerve fibers, called Remak’s fibers. He demonstrated that the grey color of these fibers results from a lack of a myelin sheath. He also discovered that fibers from motor neurons in the spinal cord course without interruption in the anterior roots and peripheral nerves. Later, Purkyne named these

Robert Remak
Robert Remak (26 July – 29 August ) was a Germanembryologist, physiologist, and neurologist, born in Posen, Prussia.
Remak obtained his medical degree from Friedrich Wilhelm University in Berlin in specializing in neurology.[1] He worked on embryology, and also discovered unmyelinated nerve fibres and the nerve cells in the heart sometimes called Remak's ganglia. He studied under Johannes Muller at the University of Berlin.
Remak discovered that the origin of cells was by the division of pre-existing cells.[2]
Despite his accomplishments, because of his Jewish faith he was repeatedly denied full professor status until late in life, and even then was denied the usual benefits of the position.[3]
