Carl Magnus von Hell (1849-1926), a German chemist and professor of chemistry at the Technical University of Stuttgart, thanks Georg Bredig (1868-1944) for sending his habilitation thesis Anorganische Fermente (Inorganic Ferments). In many Germanophone countries, a habilitation is a post-doctoral degree intended to demonstrate a scholar's capacity for research in his or her field and is usually required to attain the rank of professor.
