Scientific career
From a farming family, Virchow studied chemistry in Berlin at the Military Academy of Prussia on a scholarship. When he graduated in 1842 he went to serve as Robert Froriep's assistant. One of his major contributions to German medical education was to encourage the use of microscopes by medical students and was known for constantly urging his students to 'think microscopically'. The campus where this Charité hospital is located is named after him, the Campus Virchow Klinikum.

The 'Virchow' node,occuring in the supraclavicular area, is classically a 'telltale' sign of metastatic disease, usually from a focus in the abdominal cavity...I'm sure there must be a few cases of benign Virchows involving adjacent inflammatory pathology. |

What theory did Rudolph |
|
|
|
|
|
He is perhaps best known for his theory "omnis cellula e cellula" ("every cell originates from another existing cell like it.") which he published in 1858. It is a rejection of the then dominant concept of spontaneous generation, which held that organisms could arise from non-living matter. It was believed that maggots could spontaneously appear in decaying meat |
