He taught chemistry at the University of Giessen and the University of Munich. The University of Giessen currently bears his name. Liebig is called the father of fertilizers. He confirmed the hypothesis concerning the mineral nutrition of plants, which became the basis for the development of modern agricultural chemistry. Liebig’s research is considered a precursor to the study

Biography_Lavoisier_ENG.pdf Biography: Antoine Laurent de Lavoisier 1 Storytelling Teaching Model: wiki.science-stories.org Biography: Antoine Laurent de Lavoisier Antoine Laurent de Lavoisier (1743 – 1794) was a French scientist considered by many to be the father of modern chemistry. His most im- portant experiments investigated the nature of ignition and combustion. While not having discovered any new substances in his lifetime, he im- proved laboratory methods and devised the system of chemical terminol- ogy which is, to a great extent, still used today. He was instrumental in the overthrow
