Carl-Herman Hjortsjö
Carl-Herman Hjortsjö (8 December 1914 – 3 July 1978), born Carl-Herman Hirschlaff,
Hjortsjö was born in
epithelial pulmonal primordium in the cat was the subject of his dissertation.[2]
In 1948, after studying the
human liver, Hjortsjö made major contributions to the understanding of liver surgery and the transplantation technique that later emerged. He was the first to demonstrate the segmental division of the liver.[2][3] Hjortsjö conducted a physical anthropological investigation of the Luttra Woman, a Neolithic bog body discovered in 1943, with archeologist Karl Esaias Sahlström and osteologist and zoologist Nils-Gustaf Gejvall ; the result, including a detailed description of the remains, was published in 1952.[4]
In 1969, Hjortsjö devised the first system to
taxonomize human facial movements by their appearances on the face, along with a description of each change in appearance caused by the action of each facial muscle. American psychologists Paul Ekman and Wallace Friesen later in 1978 formalized the descriptions as the Facial Action Coding System.[5]
