A Belgian physiologist who cracked how the body knows what's in its own blood — the sensors that read oxygen levels and pressure, then relay the news to the brain.
About
Corneille Jean François Heymans was born 28 March 1892 and studied at the Jesuit College of Saint Barbara before moving to Ghent University, where he earned his doctorate in 1920. His research mapped the body's internal monitoring system: the mechanisms that measure blood pressure and oxygen content, then transmit those readings to the brain. The work won him the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine in 1938. He died 18 July 1968.
