Matthias Jakob Schleiden was born in Hamburg, Germany on April 5, 1804. After studying the law and not succeeding as a profession, Schleiden eventually focused on botany and medical research at Jena University in Germany. Even after becoming a professor emeritus of botany in 1846 and becoming a general professor in 1850, Schleiden will continue to make a fundamental contribution to the research of this cell. As a botanical professor at Jena University, Schleiden is one of the founders of cell theory. He showed that the development of all plant tissues comes from cellular activity. Schreiden emphasizes that structural and morphological characteristics, not processes, give that property to organic life. Schleiden also proved that nucleated cells are the first element of plant embryos. His botanical studies basically stopped after 1850 when he began pursuing philosophical and historical research.

Matthias Jacob Schleiden (photo on the left) (left photo) is the son of a respected physician born in Hamburg on April 5, 1804. He studied the law at Hiedelberg, reached pHD in 1826 and became a lawyer in his hometown Hamburg. His work as a lawyer was very dissatisfied with Schleiden, so he decided to commit suicide in 1832. Schreiden can be saved and survive in this attempt. After that, he was persuaded to change his life and started studying medicine in Göttingen. Thanks to his professor Butlin, Schleiden had a great interest in botany.

However, according to various observations after 200 years, two Germans, Matthias Jakob Schleiden and Theodor Schwann, claim that these "cells" are the basic functional units common to all lives . This idea has been widely accepted and is now one of the most important concepts in biology.

The reliability of developing cellular theory is often given to two scientists, Theodor Schwann and Matthias Jakob Schleiden. Rudolf ville Leou contributed to this theory, but he was not praised for belonging to him. In 1839, Schleiden suggested that each part of the plant consists of cells or cellular results. He also suggested that the cells are made by other crystallization processes inside and outside the cell. However, this is not the initial idea of ​​Schleiden. He argues that this theory is his own theory, but Barthelemy Dumortier has talked about it for several years before him. Modern cell theory no longer accepts this crystallization process. In 1839, Theodor Schwann pointed out that animals, together with plants, consist of cells or cell products. This is a major advance in the field of biology since little is known about the structure of animals to date compared to plants.
