After graduating from medical school in 1854, he also served as a research assistant to [[Jan Evangelista Purkyně|Purkyne]] who wrote about anthropology and biology. Eduard viewed science and medicine as the best tool to work towards a more just and rational ordering of society. In January 1861, Eduard joined Julius on the editorial board of the ''Narodni listy'' and took a more active managerial role during the times that Julius was imprisoned in 1862.<ref name=Garver/> During the 1880s and 1890s he continued to be one of the leading pamphleteers of the Young Czech party.
