Variant namesBiographical notes:
Born in Scotland, Grant became a world-reknowned anatomist after coming to Canada after World War I. From 1930-1956, he was Professor of Anatomy at the University of Toronto. He published three important anatomical works: A Method of Anatomy, Descriptive and Deductive (1937); Grant's Atlas of Anatomy (1943); Grant's Dissector (1940). During his 11 years at the University of Manitoba (1919-1930), Grant established the teaching of anatomy on a modern scientific basis. In addition, he made anthromorphic studies of native Canadians in the west. He travelled widely by canoe, working with Saulteaux, Cree, and Chipewyan Indians.
