Schlossberger, Julius Eugen, 1819-1860.

A professor at the University of Tübingen, Julius Eugen Schlossberger was one of the founders of physiological chemistry. Born in Stuttgart, Germany, on May 31, 1819, Schlossberger received his medical degree from Tübingen in 1840 and as a young physician, he worked at the Katherinenhospital in Stuttgart and as personal physician to the Graf Solm-Hoogstraaten. He received further training in Vienna and Paris, and perhaps most importantly with Justus Liebig in Giesen before his elevation to Professor of Chemistry at his alma mater in 1846. He remained at Tübingen until his death on July 9, 1860. Among the best known of his numerous publications was his Lehrbuch der organischen Chemie (Stuttgart, 1850, 1852).
