[Adolf-Ernst Meyer as researcher and teacher. Psychoanalysis and empirical research 8 December 1995 symposium on the 70th birthday of Adolf-Ernst Meyer].
This speech, delivered to celebrate the seventieth birthday of Adolf-Ernst Meyer, fifteen days before he died, pays tribute to his achievements as a researcher and teacher. His most important scientific projects included investigations into hirsutism, anorexia nervosa, brief psychotherapy, the way psychoanalysis functions and a pychoanalytic questionnaire on personality trait. He was influential in amongst other things founding a new field of research for the German Research Association and publishing expertises for it, and as dean of his faculty, chairman of the German College for Psychosomatic Medicine and co-editor of the extensive survey behind the new law on psychotherapy commissioned by the Federal Ministry of Youth, Family, Women and Health. In recent years he received several international honours. The textbook, "jores: Practical Psychosomatics" which he coauthored appeared only after this death.
