Paracelsus introduced the use of mineral substances, as well as chemical substances into medicine. He distinguished the difference between toxicity and treatment, and theorized the constitution of matter. This was based on three elements: salt, sulphur, and mercury. 

Why was he important?
He was important because he heavily contributed to the substantial rise of modern day medicine. 

Why should we remember him?
We should remember Paracelsus because he made an attempt to completely overthrow tradition and try to find actual causes and cures for harmful diseases. ]]> 2023-10-12 13:19:40 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624288 lucasjohnson2025 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624312 2023-10-12 13:19:41 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624312 jasonfournier2025 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624343 2023-10-12 13:19:42 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624343 josephnelson2025 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624359 2023-10-12 13:19:42 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624359 gianorcia2025 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624361 2023-10-12 13:19:42 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624361 kaylabouchard2025 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624438 2023-10-12 13:19:46 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624438 benjaminlapointe2025 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624443 2023-10-12 13:19:46 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624443 jamescolonieskelley2025 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624544 2023-10-12 13:19:50 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624544 benjaminmilgate2025 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743624578 Anders Celsius was a Swedish astronomer who is most well known for his observations and research on aurora borealis.

Jenner's work is usually regarded as the founding work of immunology, even though he was neither the first to hypothesize that cowpox infection gave a specific immunity against smallpox nor the first to carry out cowpox injection for this purpose.

 He relocated to St. George's Hospital in London in 1770 to finish his medical education there under the tutelage of the eminent surgeon and experimenter John Hunter. Edward's skills in dissection and research, as well as his knowledge of plant and animal anatomy, were rapidly recognized by Hunter. The two guys would continue to contact and be friends for life.

When Jenner, then 23 years old, returned to Berkeley in 1772, he quickly established himself as the town's physician and surgeon. Though he eventually opened up medical offices in London and Cheltenham, for the most part, Jenner spent the remainder of his life at Berkeley.

A dairymaid named Sarah Nelmes sought Jenner's advice in May 1796 over a rash on her hand. Instead of smallpox, he identified cowpox, and Sarah confirmed that one of her cows, a Gloucester cow named Blossom, recently had the disease. He decided on James Phipps, his gardener's eight-year-old son. On May 14, he scratched James' arm a little and smeared some material from one of Sarah's handpocks into those scratches. James suffered from cowpox for a few days before recovering fully a week later. 

We study Edward Jenner because of his large innovative contributions to immunization and the ultimate eradication of smallpox.

During Andreas's lifetime, a physician named "Galen" was the most popular read for those learning about Anatomy, through his various studies about the human body and how it functioned in the 1100's. His studies were believed by the general public for centuries. (Galen was prevented from studying human corpses by Law)

However, Andreas Vesalius, a man who pursued a career in Anatomy as well, had to constantly look back to Galen's studies for reference. But as he continued reading back, he discovered that there were many discrepancies in Galen's work, especially as Andreas grew more literate in the subject.

Galen came to the conclusion that Galen had never actually dissected a human being, only various animals, which he used for his sources. At the age of 25, Andreas began challenging this "Galenism" through various amounts of lectures and teachings, as well as cooperating with other people to try and publish a new book that would provide more effective ideas and studies about Anatomy.

Why is he important today? Why should we keep reading about them?

At the age of 28, he published what is known today as the first scientifically accurate study of anatomical structure called "de Humanis corporis fabrica" (The structure of the Human body). A feat that Scientists would build off of for years to come.

We should keep reading about Andreas because he's an extremely important figure who, without his contribution to anatomy and science as a whole, may have left humans with incorrect and false depictions of how human organs functioned and how the human anatomical structure appears for centuries if he'd not disclosed his research.

Hooke discovered the law of elasticity or Hooke's law. The law states that the stretching of a solid body is proportional to the force applied to it, and it makes a base for the studies of stress and strain and the understanding of elastic materials. He was an early proponent of the theory of evolution. Hooke was interested in timekeeping, making balance springs for watches, and improvements in the pendulum for clock regulation. He also used the pendulum motion to measure the force of gravity and prove the Earth and Moon follow an elliptical path around the sun. Using the Gregorian-reflecting telescope he built, Robert Hooke discovered the fifth star in the Trapezium. In 1662, Hooke was appointed curator of experiments to the Royal Society of London and was elected again the following year. In 1665, Hooke published Micrographia ("Small Drawings"). He first used the word "cell" in this work.]]> 2023-10-12 13:50:54 UTC https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743678586 kaylabouchard2025 https://padlet.com/leicesterpublicschools/xhqcual8wuq1z0kx/wish/2743679148 https://engines.egr.uh.edu/episode/1673#:~:text=Born%20Marie%20Anne%20Pierrette%20Paulze,collected%20taxes%20for%20the%20crown.

His groundbreaking experiments and discoveries revolutionized the field of chemistry. He was the first to recognize the role of oxygen in combustion and named it accordingly. Lavoisier also played a crucial role in the development of the metric system, which is still widely used today. His work, including the law of conservation of mass, laid the foundation for modern chemistry and continues to inspire scientists around the world. We should still learn Antoine Lavoisier today because his contributions to chemistry have had a lasting impact on our understanding of the subject. His discovered and experiments paved the way for modern chemistry and laid the foundation for many scientific principles that will still rely on today. By studying Lavoisier's work, we can gain a deeper appreciation for the scientific method and the importance of experimentation in advancing our understanding of the world. Plus, it is good to learn about the pioneers who shaped the field of science.
