Knoll was born in [[Wiesbaden]] and studied in [[Munich]] and at the [[Technical University of Berlin]], where he obtained his [[doctorate]] in the Institute for [[High Voltage]] Technology. In 1927 he became the leader of the electron research group there, where he and his co-worker, [[Ernst Ruska]], invented the [[electron microscope]] in 1931.<ref>[http://nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/physics/laureates/1986/ruska-autobio.html Ernst Ruska Nobel Prize autobiogrkaphy]</ref> In April 1932, Knoll joined [[Telefunken]] in [[Berlin]] to do developmental work in the field of [[television]] design. He was also a private lecturer in Berlin. |
|||
After [[World War II]], Knoll joined the [[University of Munich]] as extraordinary professor and director of the Institute for Electromedicine. He moved to the [[United States|USA]] in 1948, to work at the Department of [[Electrical Engineering]] at [[Princeton University]]. |

In 1956 he returned to Munich and engaged in a series of experiments at the [[Technical University Munich|Technische Hochschule]], involving the generation of [[phosphene]]s by [[Electrical brain stimulation|electrically stimulating the brains]] of himself and other subjects. He retired in 1966. |
