Andreas Vesalius
You may know me. I am a man of science and anatomy. I love to learn about the body structure. I was the first to assemble a human skeleton. I also wrote a book about the body structure. Do you now know who I am? Yes, I am the scientist, Andreas Vesalius.
My background stems from Brussels in Europe. I was born in December 1514 in Brussels.
I was born into a family of scientists. My family was filled with physicians and pharmacists, and this influenced me to also become a scientist. I studied at the University of Louvain in France.
Then, I studied for three years at the medical school of the University of Paris. Finally, I studied for one more year at the University of Louvain, where I also received my doctorate …show more content…
When you look at your own body, you wonder, what is under your skin. Well, I solved that question. When I had become an adult, I specialized in human anatomy and made new discoveries. I cut open dead people to look at their muscles. Next, I made drawings of my observations of the whole body. I put the drawings into a book that I called, “On the Structure of the Human Body”. Once the book was published, I became a legend. Many people have given me complements and told me that the book is amazing. People had never seen anything like it before.
My anatomy drawings changed the world. After I had published my book on the anatomy of the human body, people understood better how our bodies work. Many other scientists also became interested in the human anatomy and body. Scientists have since and up to today now tried to find new cures to heal the body. This whole new way scientists look at the body is because of me. I changed forever on how people look at the body.
That is in short how I became famous. My book has since helped people to understand how the body works. Other scientists have later added more information to this field of
