[Berolina iubilans: Berlin physicians as Halle doctoral candidates (III): Carl Ludwig Willdenow (1765-1812), Halle doctoral candidate of 1789].
Carl Ludwig Willdenow (1765-1812) who was trained as a pharmaceutical chemist and awarded the degree of Doctor of Medicine by the Faculty of Medicine of Halle University in 1789 belongs to the great botanists in an era in which the special subject represented by him finally disengages from the complex of medicine. The plant systematizer Willdenow worked on the traces of Linné, trying to note down the complex of species enlarged by him. Under his management the Botanic Garden in Berlin gained a world-wide renown. The Halle dissertation which was remarkable by its details was the intermediate station of Willdenow's professional career.
