Wilhelm Roux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wilhelm Roux (June 9, 1850–September 15, 1924) was a German zoologist and experimental embryologist.
Roux was born and educated in Jena. His methodology was to interfere with developing embryos and observe the outcome. In 1888, Roux published the results of a series of defect experiments in which he took 2 and 4 cell frog embryos and destroyed some of the cells of each embryo with a hot needle.
