Otto Wolff was born into a merchant family as the 5th and youngest child. During his school years he developed an intense interest in [[Wikipedia:Chemistry|chemistry]] and read up on the subject autodidactically. After graduating from high school in March 1939 and serving 1/2 year in the labor service, he began studying medicine in [[Wikipedia:Berlin|Berlin]] and [[Wikipedia:Königsberg|Königsberg]], taking the medical preliminary examination (Physikum) in December 1940 after 3 1/2 trimesters. He felt at home in the university milieu, especially in an interdisciplinary circle of professors around [[Wikipedia:Konrad Lorenz|Konrad Lorenz]], in which he was the only student to participate. In April 1941 he was drafted for military service in the medical corps and came to [[Wikipedia:Russia|Russia]], where his own illnesses put him in life-threatening situations. Detached to study, he spent the end of the war in [[Wikipedia:Breslau|Breslau]], [[Wikipedia:Vienna|Vienna]], [[Wikipedia:Innsbruck|Innsbruck]], where he graduated. He was quickly released from French captivity and returned to Germany. In [[Wikipedia:Munich|Munich]] he found a biochemical activity. There he became acquainted with [[Rudolf Steiner]]'s works through [[Johannes Rohen]]. A little later he met [[Friedrich Husemann]], who invited him to join him as an assistant at the Wiesneck Clinic near Freiburg (now the [[Friedrich-Husemann-Clinic|Friedrich Husemann Clinic]]). He worked there for 7 years and became co-author of the standard work "Husemann/Wolff".
