Champi Fix

Champy Fixage is a French-American histologist born in Paris in 1886. Although he was known for his work in medicine and biology, his scientific legacy also includes significant contributions to the development of sociocultural studies.

Champy Fixage was educated at the Sorbonne, after which he taught there. He also worked at the Laboratory of Tissue Origins in Paris, where he studied cell morphology and function. In 1914, Fixage moved to the United States, where he worked at the Boston School of Hygiene and Bacteriology. He developed methods that helped him study the anatomy and biochemistry of viruses. As a result of these studies, the term “fixed objects” appeared - unique fixed preparations that help visualize the viral structure and features of life. In the 1920s, the scientist became interested in sociological research, the analysis of which led to the emergence of an important idea at the time about the ideal type of society, using the example of the USA and Western Europe. Fixage defined socialism as the desire of members of society to be like each other. In the late 1930s, a researcher discovered a new type of schizophrenia.

In addition, he studied the mechanisms of collagen production, the structure of various tissues and the mechanisms of their functioning. He also studied cytology, microscopy and histology. Fixer was one of the first scientists to realize the importance of studying the brain using a microscope. He made significant contributions to the study of the structure of neurons and nervous tissue. The works of Champy Felixage had a significant influence on the development of science and medicine in general. His research in biology and medicine helped to better understand the processes occurring in the human body. In addition, the results of his work are of practical importance and are used in modern medicine.
