Russian physiologist and Nobel Prize winner Ivan Pavlov is most famous for his development of the concept of the conditioned reflex and the classic experiment in which he trained a dog to salivate at the sound of a bell. In this study, Daniel P. Todes explores Pavlov's early work in digestive physiology through the structures and practices of his landmark laboratory - the physiology department of the Imperial Institute for Experimental Medicine.
Excerpt from Outlines of Practical Physiology: Being a Manual for the Physiological Laboratory, Including Chemical and Experimental Physiology, With Reference to Practical Medicine The fact that this little work has run through an edition in a little over a year seems to show that it has met a want felt both by teachers and students of Physiology. The Second Edition has been thoroughly revised in the light of more extended experience as to what may be fairly accomplished in the limited time at the disposal of candidates for Medical Degrees. The fact that ere long a five years' course of study will be demanded from all medical students leads one to hope that more time will be devoted in the future to the study of Practical Physiology. The exercises for advanced students, and for those aspiring to Honours Degrees in Medicine and Science, have been put in small type, either in the general text or as "Additional Exercises." A considerable number of new exercises have been added both in the Chemical and Experimental Sections, and some of those in the first edition have been recast. In connection with the Chemical Section, I am indebted to Professor Drechsel's Anleitung zur Darstellung physiologisch-chemischer Praeparate, and to Rohmann's Anleitung zum chemischen Arbeiten. For some of the experimental exercises I have to thank my friends Professors Kuhne of Heidelberg and Fredericq of Liege.

We shall examine the validity of 16 experimental designs against 12 common threats to valid inference. By experiment we refer to that portion of research in which variables are manipulated and their effects upon other variables observed. It is well to distinguish the particular role of this chapter. It is not a chapter on experimental design in the Fisher (1925, 1935) tradition, in which an experimenter having complete mastery can schedule treatments and measurements for optimal statistical efficiency, with complexity of design emerging only from that goal of efficiency. Insofar as the designs discussed in the present chapter become complex, it is because of the intransigency of the environment: because, that is, of the experimenter’s lack of complete control.
