Luigi Galvani experimented with muscular stimulation by electrical means, using an electrostatic machine and a Leyden jar, and from the early 1780s animal electricity remained his major field of investigation. His discoveries led to the invention of the voltaic pile, a kind of battery that makes possible a constant source of current electricity.
Luigi Galvani was a famous Italian philosopher and physicist, and he also worked as a doctor. He famously worked on the muscles in dead frogs and was a pioneer in the biology of the nervous system.
Galvani, Luigi (1737-1798), Italian physiologist, noted for his studies of the effects of electricity on animal nerves and muscles. Born in Bologna, he was a medical student and later Professor of Anatomy at the University of Bologna. He discovered accidentally that the leg of a frog twitched when touched with an electrically charged scalpel. Galvani's name is still associated with electricity in the words galvanism and galvanization.
Frogs, and maybe a human.
Luigi Galvani was born on September 9, 1737.

Galvani concluded the contraction was produced in the organism itself and referred to this new type of electricity as 'animal electricity'.
Count Alessandro Volta disagreed with Luigi Galvani's theory of animal electricity and proposed that electricity was produced by the contact of different metals. This led to the development of the first chemical battery known as the voltaic pile, which later became the basis for modern batteries.
