Claude Bernard (1813 – 1878) was a French physiologist. Historian Ierome Bernard Cohen of Harvard University called Bernard "one of the greatest of all men of science". Among many other accomplishments, he was one of the first to suggest the use of blind experiments to ensure the objectivity of scientific observations.

Examples of homeostasis include the regulation of temperature and the balance between acidity and alkalinity in human body), now known as homeostasis
