He lived 1741 to 1801.
He lived 1774 to 1842, studied reciprocal innervation and haptic perception, and related muscles to facial expressions. Spinal-nerve anterior and posterior roots have separate functions {Bell-Magendie law, Bell}: dorsal root is sensory, and ventral root is motor [1822].

He lived 1852 to 1934 and studied neurons and brain microscopic structure. Nerve signal goes from neuron axon to next-neuron dendrite.
He lived 1847 to 1929. Cortex association areas myelinate after birth, while sense and motor areas myelinate before birth.
He lived 1857 to 1952, named neuron junctions "synapses", showed that transmission slowed there, and studied antagonistic-muscle reciprocal innervation. He studied peripheral and spinal reflexes, including dog scratch reflex, and relations between reflexes and behavior patterns.
He studied sense exteroceptors, interoceptors, and proprioceptors. Exteroceptive distance receptors detect movements and are at animal leading edges. Distance receptors receive stimuli far from physical source. Brains can build space-time relations to represent environment. Interoceptive receptors receive stimuli where physical sources contact body surface. Proprioceptive receptors receive stimuli from inside body.
Precurrent receptors initiate behavior, and non-precurrent receptor activity stops behavior. Behavior relies on body hierarchical spatio-temporal subsystems that evolution built and linked for survival. Body-limit perception affects behavior.
Organisms evolved to allow more exploration and autonomy, as distance receptors and brain integration evolved. Organisms had more prey and predator knowledge. Anticipatory responses extended control over space and time, so reaction time increased and immediate receptor responses lasted longer.

Finite device combinations, including loops, can perform any algorithm. Neural networks can recognize figures, so any input feature from figure produces same output. Reliable neural networks can come from unreliable components using redundancy.
He lived 1903 to 1997 and studied cerebellum [1967]. Connections between sense and motor nerves in spinal-cord gray matter are responsible for reflexes [1951]. Matter and mind are separate substances, and interact in synapses {interactionism, Eccles}. Mind has units {psychon, Eccles}.

He lived 1924 to 1992 and developed neuron motion-detector models, to explain how flies detect motion.
He lived 1895 to 1966 and studied brain.
He lived 1920 to ?. Axons from frog retinal ganglion cells have four groups that respond differently to different stimuli and that end in four distinct optic-tectum layers, all with same topographic map. Frog is normally motionless, so detectors detect environment changes.
Sustained contrast detectors make immediate and prolonged signals when object edge, either lighter or darker than background, moves into receptive field and stops.
Net convexity detectors make immediate and temporary signals when large dark-object small or convex edges pass through visual field. Smooth movement has less effect than jerky movement.
Moving-edge detectors respond to edges moving through receptive field. Net dimming detectors make immediate and prolonged signals with sudden illumination reduction. Frogs can recognize prey and enemy categories.

Brain works by selection. 0.5-mm-diameter cortical hexagonal columns and their lateral connections represent symbols. Columns vary, compete, and replicate. Symbols integrate and coordinate to make scenes and help each other compete and copy. Consciousness is image or scene that is most populous {scenario spinning}.
He discovered embryonic stem cells [1998].
Perhaps, consciousness is in anterior cingulate. Consciousness unifies body actions. Perhaps, ability to make new reflexes is consciousness purpose. He developed computer simulations (CyberChild) to find neural correlates of consciousness. It uses mammalian nervous system circuits grouped into binary composite units. It has two senses, hearing and touch. It controls vocalization, feeding, and bladder-control muscles. It has pain receptors for low stomach-milk level, low blood-sugar level, full bladder, and dirty diaper. Emergent behavior, such as ability to make new reflexes, indicates consciousness.
Brain scans associate brain regions with psychological functions.
.
Consciousness unifies by integrative processes among brain parts.
Experiment cannot induce blushing physically. Experiment can induce blushing only mentally. Trying to restrain blushing only increases it.

He lived 1848 to 1894. Animals learn by imitation [1886].
He lived 1859 to 1924. Simple animals have forced tropism movements. Animals move towards stimulus source {positive tropism} or away from it {negative tropism}. Simple animals have paired receptors, such as eyes, which send signals to paired muscles, such as legs. When both receptors send equal signals, tension balances between both muscles, and animal moves in straight lines {tonus hypothesis}. However, tonus hypothesis is not true for simple or higher animals.

.
They found ribozyme RNA that can act as enzymes to cut other RNA [1982]. RNA was first molecule able to replicate, because RNA can be catalyst. DNA bases and sugars came from RNA bases and sugars.

He lived 1867 to 1941. Cell from 2-cell, 4-cell, 8-cell, or 16-cell frog embryo can develop into complete adult, which can spawn complete children [1895]. Cell non-material transcendental order moves animal development toward adulthood {entelechy, Driesch}.
He lived 1860 to 1948. Dynamical forces and energies make a few main growth and development patterns and determine organism shapes.
He studied brain development from social interactions. People {natural psychologist} talk to themselves to think what to do in different social situations and so understand, predict, and control what other people do. People then evolved systems {inner eye} to image brain processes and states. Such imaging is consciousness. Consciousness emerged abruptly as existing features combined. Sensations are actions and their thoughts.

He lived 1873 to 1941 and invented electroencephalogram [1924]. Electrodes can measure scalp electrical potentials {electroencephalography, Berger}. Alpha waves are regular 10-Hz oscillations that happen when people relax and close their eyes. Beta waves are faster and less synchronous oscillations that replace alpha waves when people perform mental activity and keep their eyes open.

He lived 1772 to 1844 and studied fossils and compared fish and land animals, vertebrates and insects, and cephalopods and vertebrates. Fossils have structure homologies {unity of type}. Body type depends on vertebral structure.
He lived 1807 to 1873. Species form hierarchies, with form laws {taxonomy, Agassiz}.
He lived 1804 to 1892 and found horse intermediate fossils. All vertebrates have body plans based on repeating vertebrae, which can evolve.
He lived 1809 to 1882. He developed plant and animals evolution theory. Natural selection of variations leads to the most-successful reproduction {survival of the fittest, Darwin}. Species evolved from earlier species, making branching evolutionary trees. Evolution has caused changes without needing causer. Evolution has support from organism location, because similar environments in different locations have different organisms, and similar, mutually accessible, locations with different environments have similar organisms. Evolution has support from comparative anatomy, because different species have similar hand bones, and species have vestigial structures. Evolution has support from embryology, because segmented-worm and unsegmented-mollusc larvae are similar, and vertebrate embryos have gills. Evolution has support from the fossil record, which shows intermediate forms. Changes have billions of years to happen. Ancient rocks and environment differ from now, and fossil life forms differ from now. Current animals adapted to present environment, not to ancient one. Finches of Galapagos Islands and barnacles were test cases.
He also studied emotions. Human emotional-response and facial-expression origins are pre-human species behaviors.
He lived 1823 to 1913 and independently developed evolution theory with survival of fittest. He studied animal geography and life in Amazon River basin and Malay Archipelago.
He lived 1860 to 1940 and studied integral equations [1883]. Mating, dying, or other-species effects cause predator-number and prey-number change rates {Lotka-Volterra differential equations, Volterra} [1926]. In ecosystems, predator and prey numbers can oscillate until reaching steady state, can continue to oscillate, or can become zero, so species is extinct.
He lived 1893 to 1988 and found Taung child, Australopithecus africanus [1924].
He lived 1880 to 1949. Mating, dying, or other-species effects cause predator-number and prey-number change rates {Lotka-Volterra differential equations, Lotka} [1926]. In ecosystems, predator and prey numbers can oscillate until reaching steady state, can continue to oscillate, or can become zero, so species is extinct.
He lived 1876 to 1956 and studied primates [1929 to 1943].
He lived 1889 to 1988 and discovered genetic drift. Species arise randomly even within clade that has evolutionary direction {Wright's rule}. Selection changes allele frequencies.
He lived 1887 to 1975 and developed cladistics. Organism characteristics are clade units that determine classes and hierarchies. Organisms have homologies, and cladogram nodes represent shared homologies. Cladistics can use property absences.
He lived 1900 to 1975 and studied evolutionary theory.
He lived 1905 to 1975 and studied evolution [1939].
He lived 1904 to 2005 and examined differences between historical and non-historical sciences. New species result from variety geographic isolation {allopatry, Mayr} [1960 to 1970], rather than arising in same location {sympatry, Mayr}.

He lived 1917 to ? and discovered lysosomes [1955] and peroxisomes [1965].
He lived 1936 to 2000. Sexual reproduction results from competition between parasite and host [1963].
He lived 1928 to ?. Small subunit ribosomal RNA can classify organisms [1965].
Genes are natural-selection units, and organisms passively contain them. Evolution changes gene frequency and can make new genes.
He lived 1901 to 1982 and studied evolution.
New speciation is at range fringes in isolated places. Species change little at other times.

He lived 1913 to 1993.
He discovered genus Homo fossils [1974].
He lived 1899 to 1972.
He invented sociobiology.
Ideas or concepts {meme} {mimeme} can exist in brain, replicate, and have selection. Thoughts and ideas in memory or culture replicate themselves in other minds by imitation and transmission. Memes compete for entry into minds. Selective forces act directly on meme physical substrates, because memes restructure brains to make better habitats for themselves and to modify input and output. Perceptions, skills, feelings, and memories have no copies.
Meme sets {memeplex, Wilson} {co-adapted meme complex} can affect survival and reproduction [Dawkins, 1976]. He wrote about Universal Darwinism and replicators [Dawkins, 1995].
Meme copies behavior from another same-species animal {imitation, Dawkins}, but copying varies more than for genes. Memory ties abstractions and agreements together, so imitation is only small part. However, copy does not have same meaning, because brain does not just imitate but processes information. It involves selection and non-selective processes.
Culture also involves sharing knowledge {schema, Dawkins}, not by imitation but by abstraction. Culture also involves sharing beliefs and values {social construction}, not by imitation but by agreement. Culture depends on having a theory of mind and knowing that other people have beliefs, intentions, and desires. Genes {selfish gene} use bodies to reproduce themselves.
Evolution repeats and modifies animal forms {bauplan, Gould}. Evolutionary changes can be in bursts {punctuated equilibrium, Gould}, even after 20,000 years with no change. Most traits are side effects. Timing changes during development cause evolutionary changes.
Organisms produce more offspring than survive to reproduce {superfecundity, Gould}. Darwin defended this idea against people that thought God is more benevolent. Offspring vary in traits. All accept this idea. Offspring pass their traits to offspring. All accept this idea. Therefore, offspring with traits more favorable for survival to reproductive age will produce more offspring with same traits {natural selection, Gould}.
Darwin's evolutionary theory has three main principles to explain natural-selection mechanisms. Natural selection applies to organisms, not classes, genuses, species, tissues, organs, or genes.
Darwin suggested that altruism in humans was trait outside this idea. Perhaps, altruism can explain hybridization and worker-insect sterility. Modern theory suggests genes, cell lines, organisms, demes, species, and clades evolve using selection and drift to change frequencies and parts. They can work synergistically, in opposition, or independently of nearby levels. Other possibilities can be entropy effect or complex system spontaneous ordering.
Natural selection removes unfit and designs fit, because variations from typical or average are small, random, and numerous and not always negative. Small and large variations accumulate over many generations. Variations can have different kinds and sizes {microevolution, Gould}. Modern theory adds structural, historic, and developmental factors. Natural selection gradually makes more-complex organisms and can make new higher-level organism species. However, modern theory adds mass extinctions, species sorting by punctuated equilibrium to alter clades, and other processes taking different times. Other possibilities can be inorganic and organic comparisons or new species-formation ideas.
Because organisms overproduce, nature has competing organisms and species, so new ones must replace or wedge aside existing ones, leading to better-adapted species. This requires that environment changes slowly compared to evolution and observed species changes.
Interactors, rather than replicators, can define selection. Emergent fitness, rather than emergent traits, causes higher-level selection. Species selection is main macroevolution method.
Evolutionary theory involves same framework as other scientific explanations. It involves causation vs. association. Event sequences relate or do not relate. Related events are consequences or not. Structures and functions exist. Logical conclusions come from premises. People can find causation direction. Determinism comes from fundamental-unit laws versus independent-level interactions. Changes are gradual, spurt, maintain stasis, are exponential, or rise and fall. It involves fundamental units, structure hierarchies, change rates, space scales, and time scales.
Darwin felt that nature had progressed, because organism and ecosystem design was good (Paley) and complexity was increasing. Besides, nature ordered itself in the most-efficient way by survival of fittest (Adam Smith).
Increased speciation leads to increased extinction.
Clade selection, species habitat tracking, and grouping in populations can cause stasis.
Organisms tend to evolve to larger size, from individual size advantages and structural factors {Cope's rule, Gould}.
Slow variation and slow environmental change helped ancient organisms alive today survive. Their clades had low speciation.
Clades have various speciation rates, which can change over time and mimic seemingly progressive linear species changes, as in horses and humans.
Humans are stable genetically if punctuated equilibrium is true.
Drift can go into available niches, but bacteria dominate life.
Geometric patterns and physical laws, such as surface-to-volume ratios and coordinate transformations, constrain structures and allow few alternatives. Historical development can impose homologies and regulations. Adaptation consequences {exaptation, Gould} can have later advantages.
Homology is internal structure similarity {homogeny, Gould}. Homology can result from fundamental internal structure {parallelism, Gould} or same external pressures {convergence, Gould}. Organisms can also perform similar functions with different structures {homoplasy, Gould}.
Darwin held that small structure shifts were adaptive, but cumulative-shift adaptations can be different {functional shift, Gould} {cooptation, Gould}. Initial stages have unpredictable uses, constrain future adaptation, and form sequence. Non-adaptive structures {spandrel, Gould} arise in association with adaptive structures, and these structures can later be for adaptation, at all hierarchy levels. Adaptive structures tend to limit further evolution through specialization, but adaptive structures make many more non-adaptive structures with which evolution can work.
.
Gene DNA evolves at constant rate in all species over all history. Molecular changes that have less control by natural selection evolve more rapidly, because they have no effects, while harmful ones die out and good ones are rare {Kimura's rule}.
He studied human gene frequencies, race, and population migrations.
Catastrophe has happened at mass-extinction level, and clades, species, demes, organisms, cell lines, and genes can have extinctions {field of bullets model}.
Infections that use intermediate hosts, such as cholera and malaria, evolve to be stronger [1993]. Infections that infect directly evolve to be weak enough to maintain the host. Infections cause most genetic and chronic diseases.
.
He studied human origins from hominins [1997].
He studied brain evolution. Brains allow animals to account for environment variations in space and time and make appropriate responses. More advanced brains allow wider spaces and longer times. Brains require much energy and are in animals that can find more and/or better food at higher rate. Complex brains require longer time to develop. Family and group structures were necessary for humans to have advanced brains.
Brains can sense water, food, sexual partners, shelter, and safe locations, as well as predators and dangerous locations. Brains can assign priorities to input. Brains can perform activities to get food or water, reproduce, gain shelter and safe locations, and avoid predators and dangerous locations. Brains can remember input and output.
Brains are more complex if environmental niche is more variable. Animals use larger energy amounts, because warm-blooded. Water, food, sexual partners, shelter, and safe locations are scarcer and predators and dangerous locations are more numerous. Maximize age is higher.
He lived 1822 to 1884 and developed Mendel's inheritance laws by studying dominant and recessive characteristics of pea-plant independent and discrete heredity units.

He lived 1833 to 1914. Specialized cells carry genetic information {germ line} {germ plasm theory} [1883]. Selection can operate at levels below and above organisms.
He lived 1848 to 1935, studied evening-primrose mutations [1900], and developed inheritance laws based on cell factors {pangenesis, de Vries} [1889]. Plants can jump from form to form, unconstrained by structures. Phylogenesis results from species selection.
He lived 1861 to 1926 and invented the word genetics for heredity study. Genes carry genetic information and are in chromosomes. New species come from repeated-body-segment structure and number changes. Such modifications can lead to similarity with existing part {homeosis, Bateson}. Parts can have jumps. For example, upper thoracic vertebrae can have no ribs or lower cervical vertebrae can have ribs.
He lived 1863 to 1924 and studied crossing-over.
He lived 1866 to 1945, studied gene linkage, and invented linkage maps, using fruit flies [1909 to 1915]. Genes are in chromosomes.
He lived 1857 to 1936 and studied genetics [1909].
He lived 1890 to 1962. He developed statistical-significance methods {analysis of variance, Fisher} and Fisher experiment-design theory [1920]. Mendelian inheritance in large populations with great variety can result in gradual evolution, but blending inheritance does not work. Variation frequency varies inversely with variation magnitude. Natural selection can increase allele frequency.
He lived 1890 to 1967. X-rays mutate fruitfly cells [1926]. Many mutations cause cancer [1951].

Epistemology
People cannot know external physical events and only have neural signals. Neural signals from senses gain meaning from learned associations, which depend on assumptions that can be incorrect. Perceptions are unconscious inferences. People cannot experience or introspect how they perceive or think. People cannot know data on which brain bases perceptions and beliefs. During perceptions and decisions to perform muscle movements, nerve signals switch. Body sense receptors receive and analyze physical energies from outside world to make independent, simple, and unnoticeable sensations, and brains learn to perceive objects and events that probably produced sensations {classical theory of psychology}.

He lived 1848 to 1909. Alternating flashing lights can make afterimages {Bidwell's ghost}.
He lived 1839 to 1917 and measured nerve-impulse conduction speed [1902]. Neural ion concentrations change slightly during nerve impulses and cause nerve potential differences and action potentials {membrane theory} [1902 to 1912]. Local electric current flows between axon resting region and impulse region and causes depolarization {local circuit hypothesis}. This was idea of Ludimar Hermann.
He lived 1849 to 1936 and studied neurosis, peripheral nerves, digestion physiology, classical conditioning, and reflexes.
Contradictory stimuli can disturb balance between nervous-system excitatory and inhibitory processes, and personality affects whether neurosis develops.
Vagus nerve controls blood pressure, and four nerves control and vary heartbeat rhythm and intensity. Depending on saliva and food, tasting food {sham feeding} can release gastric juice, which has enzymes {enterokinase}.
Dogs associate neutral stimulus with reflex. Conditional reflex forms more easily if unconditional stimulus, such as food, follows conditional stimulus, such as bell, than if they are simultaneous or if conditional stimulus follows unconditional stimulus. Conditional reflex forms more easily if conditional stimulus is nearer in time to unconditional stimulus. Conditional stimulus that starts just before unconditional stimulus is as effective as conditional stimulus that started long before unconditional stimulus and lasted until just before. More intense conditional and unconditional stimuli cause greater conditioned responses. Training conditional stimulus allows testing similar conditional stimuli to investigate animal sense discriminations. External inhibition, internal inhibition, new environments, and new stimuli affect conditioning. If conditional and unconditional stimuli no longer pair, conditioned reflex gradually decreases. Maintaining conditioned reflex requires regular reinforcement. Conditioned reflex is similar to other reflexes. Conditional reflex formation is adaptation whereby animal can survive better in changing environment.

Hodgkin lived 1914 to 1998. Huxley lived 1917 to ?. They used squid giant axons to prove that ions flow across membrane rather than down axon {local circuit hypothesis, Hodgkin}, by locally increasing and decreasing extracellular-fluid conductivity [1937]. Sodium ions have ion channels, and potassium ions have separate ion channels. During action potentials, membranes are first more permeable to sodium ions, flowing in, and then potassium ions, flowing out, so potential becomes negative {Hodgkin-Huxley theory} [1952].
He lived 1896 to 1966 and developed sensation fields {afferent field, Bernstein}. He studied feedback and feedforward mechanisms. He studied human coordination and movement physiology by photographing lights fastened to arms and legs. Human movements have patterns and structures, and people maintain basic patterns no matter which organ or limb they use [Bernstein, 1947].

Only active synapses can take up protein to permanently alter synapse [1997], with Uwe Frey.
Inhibition or blocking of NMDA receptor complexes, as done by ketamine and nitrous oxide, causes unconsciousness [2000]. Consciousness is a high-level representation that brain has representations, using NMDA-receptor-linked cell assemblies firing synchronously [Flohr, 2000]. However, NMDA receptors are just as involved in non-conscious processes [Hardcastle, 2000]. Many anesthetics, such as etomidate, act on other sites [Franks and Lieb, 2000].
He lived 1795 to 1878, studied psychophysics, invented theory of signs {Lokalzeichentheorie}, measured skin sensitivity to separated stimuli [1826], studied inhibition by vagus nerve [1845], and developed law of sensation [1834], with Fechner. People can distinguish between two similar sensations {just-noticeable difference}. For each sense, ratio of just-noticeable-difference to intensity is approximately constant for all intensities. Subjective sensation increases as logarithm of physical-stimulus magnitude. Just-noticeable difference increases in direct proportion to stimulus intensity. If I is sensation intensity, intensity change divided by intensity equals constant {Weber-Fechner law} {Weber's law}: (I2 - I1) / I1 = Weber's constant. Weber's constant {Weber fraction} represents smallest stimulus intensity difference that people can perceive. If intensity is higher, differences must be larger for people to perceive them. Weber's constant is typically greater than one to three percent, differs for different senses, and tends to increase with age.
He lived 1755 to 1826.
He lived 1837 to 1900 and found rhodopsin retinal pigment {visual purple} in rod photoreceptors for twilight vision [1877].
He lived 1834 to 1918. Lung receptors signal distension, stop inspiration {Hering-Breuer reflex}, and partly control respiration.
He explained brightness perception, color vision, afterimages, and complementary colors by starting from neutral point and moving in anabolic or catabolic direction {opponent color theory, Hering}. Yellow does not subjectively appear to mix green and red and is stable over intensity changes, so yellow is a primary-color complement. Eye-movement, color-detection, and brightness-detection mechanisms are inborn. People see unique blue, unique green, and unique yellow, because they affect all three cones and, at that wavelength, people perceive no other color mixed in. People do not see unique red, because only two cones affect red.
Brain substance can contain memories, and memory is a material process, because memory survives unconsciousness and sleep.
He lived 1823 to 1915 and studied insect behavior and sense capacities.
He lived 1852 to 1932 and studied pain and touch sensations.
He lived 1886 to 1983. Fish can have color vision and can hear. Special honeybees {scout honeybee} convey information about food-source direction and distance by performing symbolic dances after they return to hive floor. Bee determines direction in reference to Sun or to sky light-polarization angle, detectable by bee compound eye. Dances have a symmetry line, which indicates food-source direction. Dance kinds and speeds indicate food-source distance: slow and round for near and fast, and waggly for far.
He lived 1928 to ?. Living cells rebuild themselves {autopoiesis, Maturana}.
He lived 1924 to ? and studied visual-cortex organization, with David Hubel. Not using eye during critical or sensitive period to detect stimulus feature makes visual cortex unable to detect stimulus feature {sensory deprivation, Wiesel}.
He lived 1926 to ? and studied visual-cortex organization, with Torsten Wiesel. Not using eye during critical or sensitive period to detect stimulus features makes visual cortex unable to detect stimulus features.
Brain detects color in round vertical columns, located 0.5 mm apart in regular arrays between primary-visual-cortex orientation columns, using double-opponent neurons, with both ON-center and OFF-center circular fields, to compare colors. He found blobs by staining primary visual cortex with cytochrome oxidase (CO), with Margaret Livingstone. Interblob regions detect orientation.
.
He lived 1956 to ?. Neural activity differs in dreaming, awake, or brain-damaged {activity principle, Koch}. Different animal types can have different neural-activity patterns.

He lived 1849 to 1919.
He lived 1744 to 1829 and studied invertebrate paleontology and invertebrate classification. Environment forces animals to acquire new characteristics through learning.
