Press release: Christopher Wren’s medical discoveries
Christopher Wren’s medical discoveries part of an Oxford ‘scientific research group’
Pioneered method to cannulate blood vessels
First intravenous drugs, fluid and blood, and first ‘resuscitation’
Embargo: 17 May 6pm (UK time)
We would like to invite you to a lecture on Christopher Wren’s Medical Discoveries: the ‘Architect of Human Anatomy’ by Professor Jaideep Pandit, on Wednesday 17 May 6pm (UK time) at Gresham College or online. In this lecture, Professor Pandit will explore Wren’s contributions to biomedical science, in particular his discoveries in anatomy – such as his illlustrations of the flow of blood to the brain (the circle of Willis), intravenous drug, fluid and blood administration, lung function and resuscitation, that have led to practical advances in the field of medicine.
Professor Pandit emphasises in this lecture that Wren was part of “the world’s first scientific research group”, and that it is hard to ascribe any particular discovery to Wren alone: “one of the most fascinating aspects of the period and place where he worked – Oxford in the mids - was that the scientific outputs should really be seen as those of the world’s first ‘scientific research group’.

Study the story behind the science in Paris
What’s the difference between teaching material in Delaware vs. abroad?
When this course is offered as part of a study abroad program, the goal is to immerse ourselves in the place where that semester’s topic was primarily taking place. This allows us to better understand the context of that scientific breakthrough and, in many cases, walk in the actual footsteps of the primary figures. For example, in Paris, when the course topic is blood transfusions, our classroom is less than yards from where the first transfusions took place! And, understanding those contexts and how they shaped the discovery process is our main goal.
Fill in the blank. Students who choose this study abroad experience tend to be…
STEM majors who are interested in careers in health professions — though they aren't the only ones!
What’s your advice to anyone traveling to Paris for the first time?
There is so much to see and so many "bucket list" places to visit that you can't see them all in one trip unless you race from place to place and don't spend any actual time to soak it in. So, pick a shorter list of things and also try to get off the beaten path a bit to visit smaller places. Those can be the best and most interesting. Also, do a fo
