Biography

1774     studies medicine at the university of Kiel

1780     earns MD degree, practices in Apenrade

114 species of fungi are discussed in his Primitiae florae holsaticae. According to Dörfelt & Heklau, this was his thesis for his medical degree; so I'm not sure what it's doing with a co-author.
