Zachariah Jansen:
In the Netherlands during the 1600's Jansen was an scientist that was the first to create an actual compact microscope along with the first telescope.

Robert Hooke:
During 1665 Hooke was in English physicist who looking at a slice of cork tree tissue through his compact microscope and saw that there were little boxes inside this slice of cork tree. He thought that these little boxes looked like the cells that the Monk's lives in, so he called them cells. Then he later published book called Micrographia that contained his drawing of the cork cell.

Anton Van Leeuwenhoek:
In 1674 he was a Dutch businessman who perfected the microscope to a 300x. He also saw bacteria through his microscope and he thought to call the "animalcules" because they looked like little animals.

Matthais Scheleiden:
In 1838 Scheleiden was a German botanist who looked at plants many years through his microscope to figure out that all plants are made out cells.

Theodor Schwann:
Was a German zoologist that in 1839, though the same things at Scheleiden, but instead of plants he thought that all animals were made at the cells too.

Rudolph Virchow:
During 1855, he was a German physician/pathologist that worked with eggs from different organisms. He proposed the theory that all cells come from other cells.

Lynn Margulis:
In 1970 she proposed that certain organelles were once free-living cells themselves

Janet Plowe:
In 1931, was the first to proposed that the cell membrane was a physical structure not an interface between two liquids.
