Life

After studying medicine in Bern and Würzburg , he received his doctorate from the University of Bern in 1872 with the dissertation on the behavior of camphor cymol in the animal organism under Marcel Nencki . Since he already showed a tendency towards pathological anatomy during his studies, he received an assistant position with Edwin Klebs soon after completing his state examination . When Klebs received a call to Würzburg in 1872, Ziegler went with him. A year later, Klebs followed a call to Prague. His successor in Würzburg was Eduard Rindfleisch , like Klebs a student of Rudolf Virchow .

Ziegler kept his assistant position and completed his habilitation in 1875 with his work on tubercle cells Experimental investigations on the origin of the tubercle elements, with special consideration of the genesis of giant cells as a private lecturer in pathological anatomy. In 1878, Ziegler moved to the pathological institute in Freiburg im Breisgau from Rudolf Robert Maier as an assistant and private lecturer , whom he later worked as an associate professor .

In 1881 Ziegler accepted a call as a full professor of pathological anatomy and general pathology in Zurich and in 1882 in the same capacity in Tübingen . In 1884 he founded the publication of the articles on pathological anatomy and general pathology in Gustav Fischer Verlag . In 1889 Ziegler was brought back to Freiburg im Breisgau as the successor to Rudolf Maier, now as a full professor at the pathological institute. He held this office until his death. In 1890 he began to publish the Centralblatt for general pathology and pathological anatomy . Ernst Ziegler died in Freiburg in 1905 after a heart attack, a disease that he had described for the first time a good 20 years earlier.
