In 1916 he moved to the University of Vienna as director of the Institute for Embryology and in 1921 he became a full professor there. In 1935 he gave up his chair due to illness.

He examined malformations with experimental morphology and dealt with the development mechanics of organs (most recently the gonads and the liver).
