These tubes bear the name of Gabriele Falloppio (also spelled Falloppia), a 16th-century (c. 1523-62) Italian physician and surgeon who was expert in anatomy, physiology and pharmacology. He was an early expert on syphilis and one of the great surgeons of the age. Of the various works by Falloppio only the "Observationes anatomicae", a work of great originality, was published during his lifetime. In it he made a number of contributions to the knowledge of centers of ossification, to the detailed account of muscles, and to the understanding of the vascular system and the kidneys. His description of the uterine tubes was sufficiently accurate that they bear his name. With Vesalius and Eustachi, Fallopio is often seen as one of the three heroes of anatomy.

How do you get to big ben by tube?

Well, you walk into the tube station, sit on the tube, ride the tube, get off the tube, wave goodbye to the tube as it slowly descends into the gaping black hole that is the tube tunnel and then get out of thee tube station and prey that by a lucky chance you have picked the correct tube to get to Big Ben. Good Luck.
