[5] [6] Harvey also removed Einstein's eyes. He gave them to Henry Abrams, Einstein's ophthalmologist. [4] Whether or not Einstein's brain was preserved with his prior consent is a matter of dispute. Ronald Clark's 1979 biography of Einstein states "he had insisted that his brain should be used for research and that he be cremated."
The autopsy was conducted at Princeton Hospital on April 18, 1955, at 8:00 am. Einstein's brain weighed 1,230 grams - well within the normal human range. Dr. Harvey sectioned the preserved brain into 170 pieces [2] in a lab at the University of Pennsylvania, a process that took three full months to complete.
Einstein's scientific publications are listed below in four tables: journal articles, book chapters, books and authorized translations. Each publication is indexed in the first column by its number in the Schilpp bibliography (Albert Einstein: Philosopher–Scientist, pp. 694–730) and by its article number in Einstein's Collected Papers.
Because of its somewhat absurd premise and execution, Einstein's Brain's veracity has often been questioned.The notion of a brain of such fame being misplaced and subsequently found by an eccentric Japanese professor has by many been found too outrageous to be true, but aside from the regular narrativization of material found in documentaries, very little actually indicates forgery.
Max Talmey (born Max Talmud; Yiddish: מאַקס טַלמוּד; 1869 – November 7, 1941) [2] was a Lithuanian-born American ophthalmologist and educator of Jewish descent, [3] best known as Albert Einstein's tutor who introduced him to fields of and books on natural science and philosophy, for his success in treating cataracts, and for his work on auxiliary languages.

Table of contents of the journal Annalen der Physik for the issue of June 1905. Einstein's paper on the photoelectric effect is sixth on this list. The article "Über einen die Erzeugung und Verwandlung des Lichtes betreffenden heuristischen Gesichtspunkt" ("On a Heuristic Viewpoint Concerning the Production and Transformation of Light") [einstein 1] received 18 March and published 9 June ...
After a sleepless night, he finally worked out a response which, ironically, depended on Einstein's general relativity. [6]: 348–349 Consider the illustration of Einstein's light box: [12]: 446–448 1. After emitting a photon, the loss of weight causes the box to rise in the gravitational field. 2.
