Italian physicist and neurophysiologist Carlo Matteucci was born #OTD in 1811.

He conducted experiments to measure the electrical currents generated by muscle & nerve tissues during contraction and stimulation. His work provided quantitative data on these electrical phenomena and confirmed that living tissues could generate electricity. Matteucci´s law describes the relationship between the intensity of the electrical current generated by a muscle & the amount of contraction.
