Life

Theodor Kaes headed the brain anatomy laboratory at the Friedrichsberg State Hospital , the first psychiatric institution in Hamburg .

In his studies he devoted himself in particular to the morphological and fiber anatomical structure of the cerebral cortex .

In the table section of his publication "The human cerebral cortex in its dimensions and fiber content - A brain anatomical atlas with explanatory text" from 1907, the results of specific brains are shown with a table and two tables with brain sections. Both the brains of children (panels 7–8, Berghausen, female, 9 months) and adults (Schmidt, female, 45 years old) were examined. And there were also criminals executed in Hamburg after 1900, such as the "angel maker of St. Pauli", Elisabeth Wiese , were investigated ("panel 41-42, Osbahr, male, 24 years old, robbery, panel 39-40, Wiese, female , 45 1/2 years, angel maker ").

After his death in 1913, Alfons Maria Jakob (1884–1931) took his place in Friedrichsberg .
