Academic career
At age 17, on 30 May 1709, Mickleburgh was admitted a sizar at Caius, Cambridge. Shortly after he migrated to Corpus Christi, Cambridge, where he was made a Fellow in 1714. He secured the 1702 Chair of Chemistry in 1718, which he occupied until his death in 1756.[2]
Among his students were John Morgan, Professor of Anatomy at Cambridge from 1728 to 1734, and his two immediate successors, George Cuthbert and Robert Bankes.[3]

gollark: I don't see the value in packing multiple different things into one syscall because the arguments happen to be the same when the kernel will have to check and dispatch to different things *anyway*, and user code also has to use a specific known form anyway.
