Posted in Science with tags decapitated, demikhov, dog, dogs, experiment, headed dog, petrovich, science, soviet, two, ussr, vladimir, vladimir petrovich demikhov on March 26, 2011 by elgraysoVladimir Petrovich Demikhov was a Soviet scientist and organ transplant pioneer, who did several transplantations in the 1930s and 1950s, such as the transplantation of a heart into an animal and a lung-heart replacement in an animal. He is also well-known for his transplantation of the heads of dogs. He conducted his dog head transplants during the 1950s, resulting in two-headed dogs, and this ultimately led to the head transplants in monkeys by Dr. Robert White, who was inspired by Demikhov’s work.
