Franz Tangl



Franz Tangl (Budapest, January 26, 1866 – Budapest, December 19, 1917) was a Hungarian physiologist and pathologist.

He attended the University of Budapest and worked as an assistant in the Budapest pathological institute and the histological institute at Graz. He first became professor of histology and physiology at the Budapest veterinary high school, and in 1903 was appointed ordinarius of medical chemistry at the University of Budapest, in 1914 professor of physiology at the same university.

Along with pathologist Paul Clemens von Baumgarten, the eponymous Baumgarten-Tangl Law is named, which concerns the localization of tuberculosis. It regards the location where the tubercle bacillus initially penetrates and causes the first changes. It was first reported by Tangl in 1890, and confirmed by Baumgarten in 1905.
