In 1888 he moved to the University of Leipzig , where he received his doctorate in medicine in 1891 and, from 1893, worked as a private lecturer. In 1899 he was appointed associate professor at the medical faculty, was second prosector at the anatomical institute and in 1917 became full professor of anatomy and histology.

In the course of filling new apprenticeships for the National Socialists, Held retired from his professorship in 1934. He had also participated in the organizational tasks of the Leipzig University. In 1920/21 he was dean of the medical faculty and in 1922/23 rector of the alma mater . He was also a member of the Leopoldina and since 1917 a full member of the Saxon Academy of Sciences in Leipzig.

He discovered the Held cells named after him , the Held bundles and the Held end chalices (a specialized synapse of the auditory pathway).
