Granit, Ragnar Arthur (b. Oct. 30, 1900, Helsinki, Fin.), Finnish-born Swedish physiologist who was a corecipient (with George Wald and Haldan Hartline ) of the 1967 Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine for his analysis of the internal electrical changes that take place when the eye is exposed to light. Granit received his M.D. from the University of Helsinki in 1927, after which he conducted research at the University of Pennsylvania and at the laboratory of Sir Charles Scott Sherrington at Oxford, Eng. He was appointed professor of physiology at the University of Helsinki in 1937. A naturalized Swede, Granit joined the medical school of the Karolinska Institute, Stockholm, in 1940; he was named chairman of the institute's department of neurophysiology in 1946. A year earlier he had also become the director of the Nobel Institute for Neurophysiology in Stockholm. In the 20 years from 1956 to 1976 Granit also served as a visiting professor or researcher at numerous institutions. From studies of the action potentials in single fibres of the optic nerve, Granit formed his

Kirjallisuutta SUOMALAISET NOBELISTIT Jos tavalliselta suomalaiselta kysytään kuinka monta Nobelpalkintoa suomalaiset, ja erityisesti suomalaiset tiedemiehet ovat saaneet, vastaus on mitä todennäköisemmin: Suomalaisia nobelisteja on kaksi, Frans Emil Sillanpää ja Artturi I. Virtanen ja tiedenobelisteja siis vain yksi. Tosiasia kuitenkin on, että nobelisteja onkin kolme, joista tiedenobelisteja kaksi, toisen ollessa Ragnar Arthur Granit. On yllättävää, että suomalaiset ovat lähes tyystin unohtaneet Ragnar Granitin ja suomalainen tiedeyhteisö pahoittelee sitä, että suomalaisia tiedenobelisteja on vain yksi.

Ragnar Granit by Yrsa Neuman At the University of Philadelphia Ragnar Granit had large research facilities at his disposal and received generous grants for acquisition of research equipment. At the same time British physiologist Haldan Keffer Hartline conducted research at the University of Philadelphia. In Pennsylvania Granit had the opportunity to experimantally test his theory on the nervous layer of the retina and its importance for seeing. Ragnar Granit returned to Helsinki in 1934, and was shocked and saddened by the persecution of the Swedish language by the fennomans at the University of Helsinki. In his book he describes the hooligans hollering in the University aula and tarring Swedish language wall signs. Granit wished to research whether the retina had separate receptors for the different components of solar light, in other words about the way the eye sees color. Granit reached conclusions similar to those of the classics of color vision theory the early English physicist Thomas Young and the German physicist and physiologist Hermann von Helmholz : that the retina has three color sensitive layers. It turned out that the eye entails a kind of nerve center that prepares the information for the brain and for the actual way there. At the Carolinian Institute Granit focused his research on how the spinal marrow and the brain exert muscular control. He retired in 1967, the same year he shared the Nobel Price with Hartline and George Wald for his discoveries concerning the physiological and chemical foundations of vision. He passed away in 1991.

Spotlight on Neuroscience Ragnar Granit Ragnar Granit was born near Helsinki, Finland in 1900. His professional training began at Helsinki University, where he completed his MD degree in 1926. His thesis on the theory of color vision recorded the bioelectric signals from the retina of a frog using electrodes that he had developed. In 1928, Granit began a four year tour of study abroad, including a visit with Nobel Laureate Sir Charles Sherrington, in Oxford, England in 1928. From 1929 to 1932 Granit was a professor at Pennsylvania University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. He returned to Helsinki to continue his research in 1932, where he was appointed Professor of Physiology in 1937. In 1945, he was selected as director of Neurophysiological Laboratory of the Medical Nobel Institute. Before retiring in 1967, Granit traveled extensively and was a visiting professor at Rockefeller University, New York from 1956 until 1966. In 1967, he was selected as a Co-Nobel Prize Winner for Physiology and Medicine regarding his work for discoveries concerning the primary physiological and chemical visual processes in the eye. Ragnar Granit died in 1991 at the age of 91.
