Jean Pierre Flourens
Marie Jean Pierre Flourens (13 April 1794 – 6 December 1867), father of Gustave Flourens, was a French physiologist, the founder of experimental brain science and a pioneer in anesthesia. Through the study of ablations on animals, he was the first to prove that the mind was located in the brain, not the heart.
Cerebellum
Even the earliest anatomists were able to recognize the cerebellum by its distinctive appearance. Aristotle and Herophilus (quoted in Galen) called it the παρεγκεφαλίς ("paregkephalis"), as opposed to the ἐγκέφαλος ("egkephalos") or brain proper. Galen's extensive description is the earliest that survives. He speculated that the cerebellum was the source of motor nerves.
