Niels Henrik David Bohr was born
in Copenhagen on October 7, 1885, as the son of Christian Bohr,
Professor of Physiology at Copenhagen University, and his wife Ellen,
née Adler. Niels, together with his younger brother
Harald (the future Professor in Mathematics), grew up in an
atmosphere most favourable to the development of his genius - his
father was an eminent physiologist and was largely responsible
for awakening his interest in physics while still at school, his
mother came from a family distinguished in the field of
education. For more click here.
