was a German scientist. In 1850‚ he measured the neural impulse in frogs. By strapping down the frogs and putting electrical voltage into their legs‚ Helmholtz measured the time it took for the frogs’ leg to twitch. Helmholtz used a galvanometer to measure the neural impulse. He found that the neural impulse in frogs was 83-90 ft/s. Afterwards‚ Helmholtz went on to test the neural impulse in humans.
