English scientist John Tuberville Needham had to leave the country (a Protestant nation that had just emerged from a period of great religious turmoil) to study and become a Catholic priest. At the seminar, he had contact with natural history and was fascinated by microscopy. In 1745, he published a work that included his observations on different types of pollen, which earned him the respect of botanists.
While studying microscopy in Paris, he met the French naturalist Georges Buffon, who introduced him to the ideas of the German philosopher and mathematician Gottfried Leibniz. From Leibniz's monads (living molecules), Needham developed the theory of the vegetative force that united all these molecules. He then developed his experiences in spontaneous generation, which brought him into confrontation with Voltaire and Spallanzani.
Needham was also known for his works on religion. For his scientific work, he was the first Catholic priest to become a member of the Royal Society, the oldest British scientific society, in 1768. In the same year he moved to Brussels, Belgium, becoming director of the Academy of Sciences. He died in Brussels in 1781.
