Fulfilment of August Antonius Rauber's long-time dream
In his educational work, August Antonius Rauber, professor of Anatomy of the University of Dorpat (nowadays the University of Tartu) paid great attention to improving students' training. He expected the educational museum of anatomy to be of great help in this. He began arranging it immediately after his arrival in Tartu in 1886. Professor Rauber lectured in German, but the number of Russian students was increasing rapidly in that period. Their c…
Pioneering embryological research at the Old Anatomical Theatre of the University of Tartu
The reopening of the University of Tartu (1802) fell into the period when the society's needs for science and educated people were increasing rapidly. Universities became the most important research institutions, and their lecturers were not merely teachers but professional scientists. German higher education fostered ties with the most significant research centres of that time's world. The current article views the pioneering embryological resea…
Medical collections today
In 1890 Professor of Anatomy August Antonius Rauber founded a museum of anatomy at the Old Anatomical Theatre in Tartu (Dorpat) in order to illustrate his lectures and to improve the students' knowledge. As Rauber lectured in German, but most students were Russians, illustrating lectures with models and original specimens was of great significance. Unfortunately, a great number of exhibits of Rauber's museum, although not all, have been lost in w…
Height and weight norms and somatotypic height-weight classification of Estonian schoolchildren aged 7-18 years
Relying on regularities of Estonian schoolchildren's body build, height and weight norms and a somatotypic height-weight classification were created for Estonian schoolchildren aged 7-18 years
Twenty-four years of the Centre for Physical Anthropology
The article provides an overview of the activities of the Centre for Physical Anthropology at the University of Tartu from its foundation in 1993 to the present
On systematisation of Estonians' body build data
Based on research results of women's, men's and children's body build, we present the arithmetic means of adult Estonian men and women (aged 20-70 years) as the national norms. Classifications based on gender and age enable to somatotype the subjects according to the classes of the classification
Alexander Theodor von Middendorff - doctor, explorer and promoter of cattle-breeding
Alexander Theodor von Middendorff is considered one of the most pioneering scientists. As a talented researcher, Alexander Theodor von Middendorff made his contribution to the development of geography, hydrology, climatology, botany, glaciology, zoology, agriculture, ethnography (partly even linguistics) and other sciences. Along with K. E. von Baer, Alexander Theodor von Middendorff was one of the greatest naturalists in 19th-century Russia. Lik…
Th workshop of EAMHMS "New life of old skeletons and papier mache models". July 4-6 2013 in Tartu
Membership in the European Union has given the unique collections gathered during 200 years by the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Tartu an opportunity to belong to the European Association of the Museums of History of Medical Sciences, which in its turn has enabled us to cooperate with the most influential and famous medical museums of Europe. When questions arise, it is possible to invite an expert from a cooperation partner, to visit …
Chance will find a talented person
Many people of Estonian ethnicity have found their way out of poverty by chance. Chance will favour the ambitious and hard-working and give them an opportunity to realise their dreams. Several examples can be found among Estonian scientists and cultural figures as well. One of those was Philipp Jakob Karell.Philipp Jakob Karell, who came from of a family of peasant servants of an estate, graduated from the Medical Faculty of the University of Tar…
