Robert Hooke is an English scientist, who coined the name "cell".
In 1665, Hooke wondered why cork floats easily on water. His curiosity drove him to find the reason for his observation. He sliced the cork into thin pieces from the bark of an oak tree and studied them under his microscope. He saw tiny pores or compartments glued together, which reminded him an empty rooms monks inhabit in a monastery. He called them cells, from the Latin word cellulae which mean "small room".
Hooke most important contribution in Biology:Book of Micrographia - which details his microscopic observation.
He described the tiniest components of living plant tissue. He demonstrated the observations of different organisms like sponges, lice, fleas and bird feathers.
Robert Hooke, the English father of microscopy, re-confirmed Antony van Leeuwenhoek's discoveries of the existence of tiny living organisms found under the microscope in a drop of water. He confirmed Leeuwenhoek's discovery of animalcules.
Hooke was the first person to use the word "cell" to identify microscopic structures when he was describing cork. Hooke also wrote Hooke's Law - a law of elasticity for solid bodies
Robert Hooke conducted his research from 1662- 1703. During that time he was Curator of Experiments for the Royal Society. He was responsible for demonstrating new experiments at the society's weekly meetings.
