The cases of Viktor Meyer and Max Bodenstein are also quite interesting. Viktor Meyer (1848-1897) did a doctoral thesis at the University of Heidelberg (1867) on a subject suggested and supervised by Adolf von Baeyer (1835-1917) who at that time was simply an assistant of Bunsen. The "official" supervisors of his thesis were the organic chemist Bunsen, the physicist Kirchhoff and the physical chemist Hermann Kopp (1817-1892). He is therefore linked to all four of them, although in terms of philosophy of research he remained a follower of von Baeyer. Max Bodenstein (1871-1942), often called the father of electrochemistry, did his doctoral work under Viktor Meyer at the University of Heidelberg (1894). For the next eleven years (1895-1906) he became the main assistant of Wilhelm Ostwald, ultimately converted to physical chemistry which he practiced when he became professor in the Universities of Hannover and Berlin. Here he is linked to both Meyer and Ostwald. 

Father Joseph Fran9ois Marie Malherbe (Rennes, 31 October 1733-Paris, 17 February 1827), teacher of philosophy in Saint-Germain-des-Pr, Paris, who left a French translation of Becher s Physica Subterranea in manuscript, in 1777 obtained a prize for a process in which a mixture of sodium sulphate, carbon, and iron was heated and the product exposed to the atmosphere, and in 1792-3 he took part in improving the manufacture of soap in Paris.
