Former Professors of the Faculty of Biology
In the course of the structural renewal of the TU Dresden at the beginning of the 1990s, it was also decided to establish a new department of Biology. In 1992, under the leadership of Prof. Werner Hempel, the founding commission started its work and in the winter semester of 1994 the first students could be enrolled in the newly established diploma program in Biology. Since then, the Department of Biology, since 2018 Faculty of Biology, has developed into an indispensable part of the life sciences in Dresden. In this context, the following former professors should be mentioned, who have laid the foundations for today's faculty with great dedication, especially in the founding and development years, and have driven its continuous further development.
