A tradesman and inventor in the biotechnology society he is undeniably deserving of The Carleton Prize of Biotechnology.

In 1878, Ehrlich was offered the position head physician at Charite Hospital in Berlin. Here he developed a new technique of straining cells to identify tuberculosis. He also identified the many types of blood cells of the body and practically laid out the foundation of hematology. Also, as he was developing a new method for the strain of live tissue, he discovered what the use of methylene blue was on the treatment of nervous disorders. After experiencing tuberculosis, he transferred to a different hospital where he focused on the problem of immunity. The hypothesis Ehrlich developed explained how antibodies are formed and how they react with other substances. Ehrlich later decided to study syphilis, and tried to form a cure for it. Ehrlich performed 606 experiments before he finally found a successful weapon to use against the
