 Albrecht von Haller - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
While still a sickly and excessively shy youth, he went in his sixteenth year to the university of Tübingen (December 1723), where he studied under Camerarius and Johann Duvernoy.
Dissatisfied with his progress, he in 1725 exchanged Tübingen for Leiden, where Boerhaave was in the zenith of his fame, and where Albinus had already begun to lecture in anatomy.
At that university he graduated in May 1727, undertaking successfully in his thesis to prove that the so-called salivary duct, claimed as a recent discovery by Coschwitz, was nothing more than a blood-vessel.
