Francois Magendie (1 jan 1783 ano – 1 jan 1855 ano)

Descrição:

-Discovered that dorsal and ventral spinal roots control sensation and motor movement independently from, but at the same time as Sir Charles Bell
------Discovered it second, but more accurate
------Together, known as the Bell-Magendie Law

-"...as for having established that these roots have distinct properties, distinct functions, that the anterior ones control movement, and posterior ones sensation, this discovery belongs to me." (rivalry)

-Concluded that the posterior root controls sensation and the anterior root control motor response

-Cut the posterior cords of the spine --> limb lost sensibility, but not movement

-Cut the anterior cords of the spine --> limb became completely immobile
