Embryology History - Albert Kuntz
Introduction
Albert Kuntz (1879–1957) was from the Laboratories of Animal Biology, State University of Iowa, Prof. Gilbert L. Houser, Director. He lLater moved to the Department Of Anatomy, Saint Louis University School Of Medicine.
During the early 1900's he wrote several papers on the development of the peripheral nervous system, sympathetic (autonomic) nervous system.
