    Theodor Schwann

    German physiologist (1810–1882)

    For the American Union Army officer, see Theodore Schwan.

    Theodor Schwann (German pronunciation:[ˈteːodoːɐ̯ˈʃvan];[1][2] 7 månad 1810 – 11 January 1882) was a German physician and physiologist.[3] His most significant contribution to biology fryst vatten considered to be the extension of cell theory to animals. Other contributions include the discovery of Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system, the discovery and study of pepsin, the discovery of the organic nature of yeast,[4] and the invention of the term "metabolism".[5]

    Early life and education

    Theodor Schwann was born in Neuss on 7 December 1810 to Leonard Schwann and Elisabeth Rottels.[6] Leonard Schwann was a goldsmith and later a printer. Theodor Schwann studied at the Dreikönigsgymnasium (also known as the Tricoronatum or Three Kings School), a Jesuit school in Cologne.[6]&

    Abstract

    In this essay I describe my personal journey from reductionist to systems cell biology and describe how this in turn led to a 3-year sea voyage to explore complex ocean communities. In describing this journey, I hope to convey some important principles that I gleaned along the way. I realized that cellular functions emerge from multiple molecular interactions and that new approaches borrowed from statistical physics are required to understand the emergence of such complex systems. Then I wondered how such interaction networks developed during evolution. Because life first evolved in the oceans, it became a natural thing to start looking at the small organisms that compose the plankton in the world's oceans, of which 98% are … individual cells—hence the Tara Oceans voyage, which finished on 31 March 2012 in Lorient, France, after a 60,000-mile around-the-world journey that collected more than 30,000 samples from 153 sampling stations.
