Christian Joseph Berres Edler von Perez (1796 to 1844) was an Austrian anatomist, born at Göding and active in Vienna and Lemberg. He studied surgery in Vienna and soon afterwards became a professor of anatomy at Lemberg. In 1831 he was appointed professor of anatomy at the University of Vienna, a post he held until his death in Vienna in December 1844. He was known for his work in microscopic anatomy. Berres is also remembered as a pioneer of photomicrography, the making of photographs through a microscope, and is reported to have produced photomicrographs by the daguerreotype method as early as 1839, within months of that process becoming public.
