Theodor Schwann did not receive any awards during his lifetime. However, the German Society for Neuropathology and Neuroanatomy (DGNN) now has a "Theodor Schwann-Prize" in his honor.
/Edit from a different person (BL)/:
In 1839 - the same year as Microscopical Researches was published - Schwann, aged 28, became professor of anatomy at the University of Louvain, Belgium.
In 1845 he was awarded the Royal Society Copley Medal for his cell work. This was the most prestigious prize in science, previously awarded to scientists such as Benjamin Franklin, Alessandro Volta, and Michael Faraday. Later recipients would include Rudolph Virchow, Charles Darwin, and Louis Pasteur.
