Galen had great expertise in anatomy, surgery, pharmacology and therapeutic methods. He is famous for bringing philosophy into medicine – although most of his philosophical works have been lost.
Galen was born in the year 129 https://www.famousscientists.org/galen/ -
This theory states that some diseases are caused by microorganisms that invade humans and animals and cause disease by their reproduction and growth within their hosts. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/books/NBK20370/

If an organism changes during life in order to adapt to its environment, those changes are passed on to its offspring. He said that change is made by what the organisms want or need. http://necsi.edu/projects/evolution/lamarck/lamarck/lamarck_lamarck.html

HMS Beagle as ship's naturalist for a trip around the world. For most of the next five years, the Beagle surveyed the coast of South America, leaving Darwin free to explore the continent. https://www.amnh.org/exhibitions/darwin/a-trip-around-the-world/

Gregor Mendel, through his work on pea plants, discovered the fundamental laws of inheritance. He deduced that genes come in pairs and are inherited as distinct units, one from each parent. Mendel tracked the segregation of parental genes and their appearance in the offspring as dominant or recessive traits. http://www.dnaftb.org/1/bio.html

Louis Pasteur Experiment: Refute Spontaneous Generation. To do this, he set up two experiments. In both, Pasteur added nutrient broth to flasks, bent the necks of the flasks into S shapes, and then boiled the broth to kill any existing microbes. http://www.pasteurbrewing.com/louis-pasteur-experiment-refute-spontaneous-generation/

Plasmodium falciparum is a unicelluar protozoan parasite of humans, and the deadliest species of Plasmodium that cause malaria in humans. It is transmitted through the bite.

Allele Frequencies. A significant question in population genetics, therefore, is determining the frequency of the dominant and recessive alleles in a population. http://www.biologyreference.com/Gr-Hi/Hardy-Weinberg-Equilibrium.html

Thomas Hunt Morgan peered through a hand lens at a male fruit fly, and he noticed it didn't look right. Instead of having the normally brilliant red eyes of the wild-type fruit fly, this fly had white eyes. After a few test crosses involving this fly, Morgan saw that the white-eye trait exhibited an inheritance pattern. http://www.nature.com/scitable/topicpage/thomas-hunt-morgan-and-sex-linkage-452
