Martin Heinrich Rathke (1793 – 1860)

Martin Rathke

Rathke's pouch is named after German embryologist and anatomist Martin Heinrich Rathke (1793 -1860). During development, the boundary surface ectoderm placode epithelium on the roof of the pharynx forms a pocket (Rathke's pouch) that comes into contact with the ectoderm of developing brain.
