    Extractions: Granit, Ragnar Ragnar Arthur Granit was born in the parish of Helsinge, Finland, on October 30th, 1900, eldest son of the Crown forester Arthur Wilhelm Granit and his wife Albertina Helena Malmberg. The family then moved to the neighbourhood of Helsingfors where his father opened a firm dealing with sylviculture and forest produce and the son became a pupil of the Swedish Normallyceum belonging, as he did, to the Swedish population of his native country, to a sea-faring family from the island of Korpo in the Baltic waters separating Sweden and Finland. He still spends his summers on this island. Granit matriculated at Helsingfors University in 1919. While still at school, he took part in Finland's War of Liberation 1918 (the Svidja corps) and was decorated with the Cross of Freedom IV Cl. «with sword». During a preliminary Summer Course at the Abo Academy in 1919 he decided to take up experimental psychology, which as an academic subject fell within the humanities, but was well advised by his uncle, Dr. Lars Ringbom, to add a full medical degree to these studies. His teacher in experimental psychology at Helsingfors was Eino Kaila, later Professor of Philosophy. Granit became Mag. Phil. in 1923. During his medical studies he arrived at the conclusion that physiology would prove a better starting point than psychology for the visual work that he had undertaken almost from the beginning of his career and so he eagerly accepted the post of demonstrator (assistant) at the Physiological Institute, offered him in 1926 by Professor Carl Tigerstedt. He took his M.D. in December 1927 and became «Docent» in Physiology in 1929.

    Extractions: Granit, Ragnar Arthur (1900-1991) was a Finnish-born Swedish neurophysicist who studied the physiology (function) of the eye. He shared the 1967 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine with the American scientists Haldan Keffer Hartline and George Wald. The prize was awarded for their work on chemical and physiological processes in the eye. Beginning in the 1920's, Granit's research focused on psychophysics, a branch of psychology dealing with the relations betwen physical stimuli and sensations. Granit used techniques for amplifying the small electrical impulses in the nervous system to study the physiology of the retina, the part of the eye that absorbs light rays. He also conducted many investigations into the responses of individual retinal cells to light of a variety of wavelengths and intensities. His investigations into the retina led to his dominator-modulator theory of color discrimination. According to Granit, some optic nerve fibers (the dominators) respond to the whole spectrum of light, but others (the modulators) are color-specific. Granit used the recording of electroretinograms (ERG's), charts of the electrical responses of the retina to light. Granit compared the ERG's of various animals, in different light conditions. Granit's later work focused on the role of sensory organs in muscle spindles. Other work conducted by Granit includes research into the spinal cord and related questions of motor control and neuro-physiology.

    讚詞. About twelve centuries ago a powerful Scandinavian ruler called Ragnar Granit, Ragnar Arthur  
    http://www3.hku.hk/hongrads/index.php/chi/archive/graduate_detail/193
    
    Extractions: Granit, Ragnar Arthur About twelve centuries ago a powerful Scandinavian ruler called Ragnar Lodbrok invaded England and was killed in a fight with the Saxon king of Northumbria. He was called Ragnar because in nordic sagas this name stands for strength and power such as is possessed by mythical gods. The invasion of England by Ragnar Granit in the early 'thirties of this century was a more peaceful affair, carried out with the purpose of becoming one of the pupils of the grandfather of modern neurophysiology, Sir Charles Sherrington. We must, in this year of 1961, regard Sherrington as a grandparent, for there is no doubt, Mr. Chancellor, that the father of neurophysiology today is the man who now stands before you. He came to Sherrington at Oxford having spent three years as a Fellow in Medical Physics at the University of Pennsylvania. Prior to that he had emerged, with an interest in psychology, as a Doctor of Medicine from Helsingfors University, Finland, the country in which he was born in 1900. It was to this University that he returned, in 1937, as Professor of Physioiogy. Three years later he was invited to become Director of the Institute for Neurophysiology at the Caroline Institute, Stockholm, a Chair in Neurophysiology being created for him there in 1946. His researches have led to a deeper understanding of the physiology of vision, and have added greatly to knowledge of the nervous mechanisms by which posture and movement are effected and controlled. His book on Receptors and Sensory Perception, based, on the Silliman Memorial Lectures he delivered at Yale University in 1954, constitutes a landmark in this field equivalent in stature and significance to Sherrington's classical Silliman Lectures on The Integrative Action of the Nervous System published some fifty years earlier.
