an english plant anatomist or botanist and physiologist

Father of Plant/Pant Anatomy

Non conformist divine and vicar of Stm Michaels, Conventry and was born in Warwickshire

The 1st European to published friction ridge skin observation

The author of the Philosophical Transactions in 1684 which was presented before the Royal Society in London, England.

He presented his observations the appearance of the ridges on the fingers and palms

he described sweat pores, epidermal ridges, and their various arrangements. Included in his paper was a drawing of the configurations of the hand displaying the ridge flow on the fingers and palms

he was an italian biologist and physician. "Father of microscopical anatomy, histology, physiology and embryology"

He was a dutch golden age physician, anatomist, poet and playwright

he published an anatomical atlas, Anatomia Human Corporis

described papillary ridges on skin

this was one of the pioneering scientific observations which laid the foundation of forensic identificatiion using fingerprints.

was illustrated with 105 plates by Gerard de Lairesse, showing the human figure both in living attitudes and as dissected cadavers

the atlas was illustrated by

who plagiarized the works of Bidloo and Gerard Lairesse for his Anatomy of the Human Bodies

A professor of anatomy at the University of Bolgana, noted in his treaties; ridges, spirals and loops in fingerprint

He was an Italian anatomist published his work "De Externo Tactus Organo" in book form

He described the ridges found on the palmar surface of the hand which course in diversive designs and the pores which served as the mouth of the sweat glands.

He was noted for his discovery of the inner and outer structures of the skin. (Epidermis & Dermis)

Malphigi Layer is approx. is about

He was an english engraver in 1809 and natural history author

Early in his career he took on all kinds of work such as engraving cutlery, making the wood blocks for advertisements and illustrating children's books

Known aslo as the grandfather pf Dactyloscopy according to Edmond Locard

Father of Dactyloscopy

in 1767, at the age of 14 years old, he already apprenticed to a local metal engraver

He decorated some of his work with fingerprints. A caption added to one of his carvings

was also noteworthy for having usedhis fingerprint as a form of signature, in conjuction with written name to denote individuality in his publications.

was one of the first to recognized the individuality of a fingerprint

Wrote on ridge formation but dealt with the subject from viewpoint of anatomy rather than identification

Followed along the same lines as HINTZE had written

He was a german anatomist who published a book which was an atlas of anatomical illustrations of fingerprints in 1788

His remarks contain statement which clearly pronounced one of the fundamental principles of fingerprint science

He was the first European to recognize that fingerprints were unique to each individual

He was the 1st to state that the prints of two different persons are never alike

He was a French police officer and biometrics researcher who applied the anthropological technique of anthropometry to law enforcement creating creating an identification system based on physical measurement

He is the inventor of mug shot

He devised the first truly scientific method of criminal identification in Paris France called Anthropometry

He conceived the idea of using anatomical measurements to distinguish one criminal from another

He decide to use various body measurement such as head length, head breadth, length of of left middle finger, length of the of the left cubit (forearm) etc.

He was a Belgin Astronomer, Mathematician, statistican and sociologist

He presented his theory on human variance around the average with human traits being distributed according to normal curve

he proposed that normal variation provide a basis for the idea that populations produce sufficient variation for artificial or natural selection to operate

he proposed Body Mass Index

He proposed a "Starling Theory" in 1849 that there are no two persons in the world who are exactly of the same physical measurement.

He was a german medical researcher from Hamburg who studied the fingerprint characteristics of friction ridges and volar pads

He may have been the first researcher to study development of friction ridges

In 1883, the first researcher to address the formation of friction ridges in embryos and topographical physical stressor that may have been part of their growth

He was a german physician, anatomist, physical anthropologist, evolutionist and proffesor at the University of Heidelberg from 1890 at the University if Breslau until 1916

He was a professor of Anatomy and studied evolutionary theory

He researched the volar pads associated with the epidermal patterns grouping the volar pads of humans and primates together

He examined the walking pads and eminences pf several pendactloscopy of 5 fingered mammals

He is the most important researchers in the field of physical anthropology and advocated seperating anthropology from religion

He was credited being the first researcher to examine the walking surface of other mammals

He is connected with the University of Edinburgh, Scotland, published a paper on the similarity in appearance of the eminences or walking surfacef primates entitled "The Papillary ridges on the Hands and Feet of Monkeys and Men"

he was the first to recognize that ridges assist gripping by creating friction and that they had a function other than increasing tactile stimulus

In 1904 published a paper, "The Vential Surfaces of the Mammalian Chiridium-with Special Reference to the Conditions Found in Man",

A professor of Zoology at Smith College Massachusettes that jn 1896, while he was studying monkeys, he was struck by the resemblance of their volar friction ridges to men

He became very interested in dermatoglyohics and in 1897 published his first paper on the subject entitled "On the disposition of the Epidermic Folds upon the Palms and Soles of Primates."

He was the first to suggest that the centers of disturbance of primate friction ridge formations actually represented the locations of volar pads

He devised method for measuring blood volume in human and animals

He also devised a method of measuring red blood cell volume

A professor in Anatomy &Assistant Dean of the School of Medicine at Tulane University, Louisiana who spent a great deal of his life studying dermatoglyphics

In 1943 he co-authored a book "Fingerprint, Palms and Soles- An introduction to dermatoglyphics with Bidlo"

In 1929, published a paper, "The Topographic History of the Volar Pads in the Human Embryo"

He described the information and development of volar pads on the human fetus, concluded that the physical aspects of the volar pads such as location, growth differential and configuration variances affected driction ridges development and overall pattern coniguration

A doctor from Tulane University, an associative of Cummins oublished a thesis in 1952 entitled, "Morphogenesis of the Volar Skin in the Human Fetus"

His paper not only describes the formation of friction ridges of the hunan fetus but also describes the development of friction ridge identification

A professor in Anatomy &Assistant Dean of the School of Medicine at Tulane University, Louisiana who spent a great deal of his life studying dermatoglyphics

He was a british ICS/Indian Civil Service Officerin India who used fingerpritns for identification on contracts

Father of Chiroscopy

requested that the prisoners be fingerprinted but his permission was denied in 1877

he was a scottish physician, missionary and scientist who is noted for the development of fingerprinting

A scottish missionary doctor of United Presbytherian Church conducted a careful experiment in Tsukinji, Tokyo, Japan

He concluded that fingerprint patterns are unchangeable and that superficial injury of the fingers did not alter them, they returned to their former design as the injury healed

His important conclusion was that fingerprint left on objects with bloody or greasy fingers may lead to the scientific identification of criminals

He requested the police that he may be allowed to compare the sooty handprints and the handprints of the suspect and then found out the suspect was not the thief

He published an article on "the skin furrows of the Hand" points out his observation that the chance prints left at the scene of the crime would provide for positive identification of offenders
