Pavlov attended Rayzan Ecclesiastical High School at the age of eleven. Due to a childhood accident so he was not able to begin school as early as other children. Pavlov and is brothers later entered the Ryazan Ecclesiastical Seminary. While at the seminary, he planned to pursue a career in theology. But, after being introduced to the works of Charles Darwin and Ivan Sechenov, Pavloc decided to transfer to the University of St. Petersburg to gain knowledge about natural science. While in St. Petersburg, he studied chemistry and physiology and he receiver his doctorate in 1879.

Pavlov continued his studies and began doing his own research topics on digestion and blood circulation, the two topics that interested him most. His work became recognized and well known and so he was appointed professor of physiology at the Imperial Medical Academy.

In 1875, Pavloc completed his course with an outstanding record an

In Pavlov’s study of the reflex regulation of the activity of the digestive glands, he paid special attention to the phenomenon of psychic secretion, which is caused by a food stimuli at a distance from the animal. Since he was a skilled surgeon, he was able to implant small stomach pouches in dogs to measure the secretion of gastric juices produced when the dogs began to eat. With help of his assistants he was able to condition the dogs to salivate at the click of a metronome.

Furthermore, Pavlov concluded that he was able to pair a neutral Stimulus with an excitatory one and have the neutral stimulus eventually elicit the response that was associated with the original unlearned reflex. In Classical Conditioning terminology, an unconditioned stimulus (US) is an event that causes a response to occur which is referred to as the unconditioned response (UR).

In 1890, Pavlov was invited to organize and direct the Department of Fuselage at the Instituted of Experimental Medicine. He also was appointed Professor of Pharmacology at the Military Medical Academy. In 1895, he was appointed to the then vacant Chair of Physiology of Digestion. This led him logically to create a Science of Conditioned Reflexes and the field of Classical Conditioning.\Pavlov was held extremely high in regard to his country, both as Russia and the
