He studied medicine at the University of Vienna, where he received his doctorate in 1861. In 1864 he was a privatdozent of ophthalmology, later becoming a professor at the University of Innsbruck (1869). In 1877 he resigned his position at Innsbruck, afterwards returning to Vienna as a private instructor. Later he was appointed assistant director of the "Allgemeine Poliklinik", and in 1894 attained the chair of ophthalmology at Vienna. In 1859, while still a student, Mauthner described a fibrous structure in the spinal cord of fishes that contained two large cell bodies in the animals' metencephalon. These cells were to become known as Mauthner cells, and are known to exist in amphibians as well as in fish. Mauthner cells have large-diameter axons that run down the length of the spinal cord" - wikipedia]. Some chips & tears to covers. Rubberstamp to cover. Worn. Good. Seller Inventory # 028028
