Richard Julius Petri

Born 31 May 1852; died 20 Dec 1921 at age 69.German physician and bacteriologist, remembered for his name given to the Petri dish.

Petri developed it for a technique for cloning bacterial strains using an agar slope and sub-culturing onto his dish, recognizing different bacterial colonies and again sub-culturing. He was in his later days a rather vain, overweight man, who dressed in the uniform of chief army doctor whenever the opportunity presented itself.
