ResumoJohann Florian Heller was born in Iglau, Czechoslovakia, on May 4, 1813. His father, a pharmacist, interested the boy in chemistry, botany, and medicine. In 1837, Heller received a doctorate of chemistry at the University of Prague, Czechoslovakia. After visiting the laboratories of German chemists Justus Liebig (1803–1873) and Friedrich Wöhler (1800–1882), he began work at the Allgemeines Krankenhaus in Vienna in 1842. There he was a colleague of Karl von Rokitansky, the famous German pathologist (1804–1878), who believed that abnormalities in body fluids were the origin of disease.
