Framed Print of James Young Simpson, Scottish Physician
James Young Simpson (June 7, 1811 - May 6, 1870) was a Scottish physician. He entered the University of Edinburgh at the age of 14, completed final examination at the age of 18, but had to wait two years before he got his license to practice medicine. He improved the design of obstetric forceps and fought against the contagion of puerperal sepsis. In 1847, Simpson discovered the properties of chloroform during an experiment with friends in which he learnt that it could be used to put one to sleep. His most noted contribution was the introduction of anesthesia to childbirth and his advocation for the use of midwives in hospitals. © New York Public Library / Science Source
