GASPARD-JOSEPH MARTIN SAINT-ANGE (1803-1888) came from a family of artisans from Rodez. A medical student, an extern in 1825, he defended his doctoral thesis "Anatomical and physiological research on the membranes of the brain and spinal cord" in 1829. A member of the Anatomical Society of Paris from 1826, he was recruited as a naturalist assistant at the Natural History Museum. Towards the end of his medical studies, as both an anatomist and physiologist, he specialized in the study of reproductive phenomena in vertebrates. In 1827, he studied the circulation of blood, considered in the human fetus and comparatively in 4 classes of vertebrates. In 1854, he published a study of the reproductive system in the five classes of vertebrate animals, from an anatomical, physiological and zoological point of view. In 1834, he was made a knight of the Legion of Honor after notable services for cholera and promoted to officer on 30 April 1847 for having won the two major government prizes at the Institut de France, one relating to the development of the foetus, the other to the reproductive organs.
