Olga Vassilievna Leonova, later Leonowa-von Lange born 1851 or 1859 was a physician and embryologist known for her studies of neuroembryology and congenital disorders, specifically those affecting the brain, spinal cord, eyes and limbs. Leonova was one of the first female scholars to work in Constantin von Monakow's laboratory ("Labörli"), founded in 1885, the origin the Zürch Brain Research Institute Brain Research Institute of Zurich University. Leonova, born in Russia, studied medicine in Moscow, St. Petersburg, Vienna and Leipzig. Later she did research work at the Imperial University of Moscow's cutting-edge neurobiology laboratories. Her research focussed on stillborn infants with congenital brain disease. Here she described the connection between central nervous system damage and congenital eye disease. She earned her doctoral degree before 1904, published at least 12 scientific papers between 1890 and 1909 but did not show further scientific development (Refs.). After a head start into the European neuroscience scene in 1894 as the only lady scientist presenting at the 66. central conference of German speaking naturalists and physicians in Vienna, she later apparently lost the support of the science community. This may partly be due to her argumentative, almost belligerent style of writing. Her work was cited for a short period and the forgotten. She eventually resided in a villa in Laufenburg, Germany, at the border to Switzerland, and became arrested in 1914 as a Russian spy. After two years she was allowed to move to Zürich.
