“To meet the views of M. Marey a physiological station is being
established in the Bois de Boulogne. In his Laboratory at the College
of France M. Marey has been able to make a number of researches on
the physiology of the nerves and muscles; but from want of space, he
has encountered difficulties when he required to study the functional
movements of the various animals. The new physiological station of
the Bois de Boulogne, which will have a roadway of 3,500 yards in
length, will enable M. Marey to make interesting experiments on this
subject.”--_Brit. Med. Journ._, 19 Nov., 1881, p. 826.
Dr. Marey devoted himself to scientific Research, and founded a Free Lab.
of Physiology, which was for some time the only one in France.

“If it is necessary to register the movements of the heart a small
instrument invented by M. Marey is very useful. The animal is fastened on
its back to a wooden table, and its heart being laid bare, can be held
level with the abdominal region by a pair of bent tongs.”--_Traité de
Physiologie_, Béclard, Vol. II., p. 37.
