Cornelia Schorer

Cornelia Bernhardine Johanna Schorer (12 July 1863, in Lübeck – 9 January 1939, in Potsdam) was a German physician.

She spent two years at the Roquettesches privates Lehrerinnenseminar [de], when it was the only school in Lübeck that offered professional training to women.

She stayed in Lübeck, teaching French and German at the Ernestinenschule [de]], where she was officially a "scientific assistant".

In 1889, she went to Berlin to attend a private school for women, operated by the feminist, Helene Lange.

She then transferred to Boston State Hospital, where she was involved in a study of mentally ill women who had run afoul of the law.
