Jean Baptiste Saint-Lager, born in 1825 in Lyon and died in 1912, was a French botanist and physician. In June 1881, he was made a member of the Academy of Sciences, Belles-Lettres and Arts of Lyon (Académie des sciences, belles-lettres et arts de Lyon). [1]
Little is known of Saint-Lager's early life. Jean Baptiste Saint-Lager began practising medicine in Lyon, after successfully concluding his studies at the Lyon School of Medicine in 1847. [2] In 1850 he worked as a doctor of medicine at the University of Paris, where he remained in this profession for twelve years. [2] In 1862, he began travelling to make collections for his research on both botanical and medical topics, during which time he devoted himself to scientific studies. [2]
In his pursuit of academia, he was greatly influenced by Gaspard Adolphe Chatin (1813–1901), who laid the foundation for the modern hydrotelluric theory of iodine deficiency, based on the knowledge of iodine's biological cycle. Although Chatin's findings were disputed by scholars representing the biological conservatism of the times, Jean Baptiste Saint-Lager supported Chatin's views and wrote a careful review of 43 different pathogenetic theories of goitre. [3]
In Saint-Lager's study of herbaria, he dealt primarily with the process of nomenclature and of plant taxonomy. [2]
Jean Baptiste Saint-Lager is recognized as being one of the founders of the Lyon Botanical Society (Société botanique de Lyon) and served as librarian for that society, as well as for the Linnean Society of Lyon until 1911. [2]
