| Physicist, born in Erlangen, Bavaria, SC Germany. He became professor at Nuremberg (1833–49) and Munich (1849–54), after a long struggle to get due recognition for the importance of his work. Ohm's law had been published in 1827 as a result of his research in electricity, and the measure of resistance is now called the ohm. |
