	Joseph Erlanger Biography \| Encyclopedia of World Biography
		Joseph Erlanger, the son of Herman and Sarah Erlanger, was born on Jan. 5, 1874, in San Francisco, Calif. He studied chemistry at the University of California, where he received his bachelor's degree, and then went on to Johns Hopkins University for his medical training.
		The "Erlanger clamp" he designed reversibly to block the conduction of the auriculoventricular nerve bundle and thus was able to define some of the functions of this bundle in carrying impulses between the chambers of the heart.
		Erlanger's later work, which continued after his retirement and after his appointment as emeritus professor, was concerned mainly with the properties of single nerve fibers and, to a lesser extent, with synaptic function.

		Erlanger taught at Johns Hopkins University (1900–6); at the Medical School of the University of Wisconsin (1906–10), in Madison; and at the Washington University School of Medicine (1910–65), in St. Louis, Mo.
		Erlanger's main research was on the regulation of blood pressure and on the electrical properties of nerve impulses, especially the conduction of nerve impulses between sections of the heart.
		Erlanger and Gasser were awarded the 1944 Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine for “their discoveries concerning the multiple functional differences of specific nerve fibers.”

		Joseph Erlanger was born in 1874 in San Francisco, California.
		Erlanger's research into nerve function was the product of a profitable collaboration with Gasser, one of his students at the University of Wisconsin, Madison (1906-10).
		In 1932 Erlanger and Gasser found that the fibres of a nerve conduct impulses at different rates, depending on the thickness of the fibre, and that each fibre has a different threshold of excitability--i.e., each requires a stimulus of different intensity to create an impulse.

	Joseph Erlanger Biography \| World of Anatomy and Physiology
		Joseph Erlanger was an American physiologist whose pioneering work with his collaborator, Herbert Spencer Gasser, helped to advance the field of neurophysiology.
		Erlanger spent the next several years exclusively at Johns Hopkins except for a six-week trip in the summer of 1902 to study biochemistry at the University of Strassburg in Germany.
		Erlanger and the other department heads constituted the new school's executive faculty, which oversaw administration and offered significant input into the construction and design of the new medical school buildings.

		As president of APS Erlanger traveled to Stockholm to repeat the invitation on behalf of APS to hold the XIII International Physiological Congress in America.
		Shortly after Erlanger received his M.D. degree in 1899, he was offered an assistant professorship at Johns Hopkins under William Henry Howell.
		After 1904 Erlanger's research concerned the conduction of excitation in the heart; he showed that Stokes-Adams syndrome resulted from blockage of conduction between the auricles and ventricles.

	Joseph Erlanger - Biography
		Erlanger's chief research has been done in the fields of electrophysiology and the physiology of the circulatory system.
		In 1922, in collaboration with Gasser, Erlanger adapted the cathode-ray oscillograph for the study of nerve action potentials and this led to the work for which Erlanger and Gasser were given the Nobel Prize for Medicine or Physiology in 1944.
		Erlanger has also worked on metabolism of dogs with shortened intestines, on traumatic shock and on the mechanism of the production of sound in arteries.
