Albert Kyper

Albert Kyper also: Albertus Kiper Albertus Kijper, Cuperus, Cyperus ; (* 1614 in Königsberg (Prussia) ; † September 15, 1655 in Leiden ) was a German physician.

Life

Kyper had attended school in Kneiphof and, at the age of eighteen, enrolled at the University of Königsberg on May 21, 1632 , and began studying the philosophical sciences. Apparently he got a master's degree in philosophy there. The situation in Germany during the Thirty Years War prompted him to flee to the Netherlands. On June 30, 1638, he enrolled at the University of Leiden as a medical student. Here he received his doctorate in medicine in 1640 with the treatise De lue venera . From 1643 he was allowed to hold lectures on physics at the Leiden University as a private lecturer. Kyper was a follower of the old school, an admirer of Aristotle and Galen , in which context his work Institutiones physicae originated.

In 1646 he went to the Illustre grammar school in Breda as a professor of physics and medicine , which he took up on September 19 with an Oratio Inaugualis and became Prince Frederik Hendrik's personal physician. On June 8, 1650 he became professor of medicine at the University of Leiden. Here he taught general pathology, therapy, special pathology and medicine. With his professorship he had also taken over the management of the Leiden University Clinic. After he had also participated in the organizational tasks of the Leiden University as rector of the Alma Mater in 1655, he died of the plague that was rampant in Leiden at the time.

His daughter Elisabeth came from his marriage to Catharina van Lyndershausen and married Sebastian Schelkens (1635–1700), a grammar school professor in 's-Hertogenbosch. His son Gerardus (* 1652) studied on March 15, 1673 at the University of Leiden.
