After Bezold had successfully completed his school years in 1854, he began his medical studies in Munich that same year . The following year he moved to the University of Würzburg . In 1857 von Bezold went to the University of Berlin to study with Emil Heinrich Du Bois-Reymond , where he became his assistant a year later.

In 1859 Bezold returned to Würzburg to complete his dissertation " On the crossed effects of the spine ". In the same year Bezold received a call to the University of Jena (as successor to Emil Huschke at the newly created chair for physiology), which he could only accept after submitting his dissertation and completing his doctorate. In 1864 Albert von Bezold founded the Würzburg Physiological Institute.

Bezold discovered the circulatory effect, the scientific proof of which was provided by Adolf Jarisch junior ( Bezold-Jarisch reflex ).
