Ulrich Friedrich Hausmann
Ulrich Friedrich Hausmann (born September 10, 1776 on Gut Grevenburg near Sommersell in today's Höxter district; † January 25, 1847 in Hanover ) was a German veterinarian.
From 1819 to 1846, Hausmann was head of the Royal Veterinary School in Hanover (today the University of Veterinary Medicine Hanover ), where he played a significant role in the maintenance and further development of the institution through his work at a time when teaching and research were still taking place under the most difficult conditions . Hausmann, who had spent the period from 1803 to 1814 in English exile due to Napoleonic rule, knew how to make use of advances in British veterinary medicine after his return to Germany.
His writings, if not numerous, received great attention among his contemporaries, including an award-winning book on the Conception and Origin of the True Female Egg in Mammals and Humans (1840) from the Königliche Societät der Wissenschaften zu Göttingen .
