=Science= Science advanced dramaticaly during the Renaissance. Anatomists, physicists, and other scientists found many new things.

 [|Andreas Vesalius] Andreas Vesalius was born in Brussels on December 31, 1514 at 5:45 am. His given name was André Wesele (Witing) Crabbe. He was from the Belgian area and was educated in Brussels, Padua, Paris, and Louvain. He was Catholic and married to Anne Van Hamme in 1545. They had one daughter, also named Anne, in 1546. There is no further information on where she went. Andreas studied anatomy, medicine and physiology. He was a great anatomist. Here are a few things he published: 1537 - A Paraphrase on the Ninth Book of Rhazes 1538 - Tabulae sex (Winter) 1539 - The Venesection letter 1543- De humani corporis fabrica (On the Structure of the Human Body) This quickly became the standard anatomy textbook in its time. 1541 - The Opera Galeni - A revision of Galen’s works. (Giunta, 1541, Froben, 1542) 1555 - The Humani Corporis Fabrica Epitome (Johannes Oporinus)

In 1553, Andreas started his own medical practice in Brussels. In 1559, he became a physician to the King of Spain. These were trying years for him, as he was not accepted by his peers. In 1564, he went to the Holy Land. Reasons for his quest are unknown. He fell ill on his journey back and died on the island of Zanthe, off the coast of Greece. His remains, to this day, are undiscovered. The greatest advance in medicine at the time was the increased understanding of the human anatomy, mostly due to the work of Andreas Vesalius. =Religion= Religion was greatly re-written during the Renaissance. Not only were there new denominations formed, but there was now also and abundance of people who could now read, and didn't rely as much on the Church to tell them about their religion as much when they could read what the Bible told them themselves.

Pope Leo X was the son of Lorenzo de Medici, who was part of a powerful family in Italy. He recieved a careful education in Lorenzo's court, studying under people such as the great Politician. He was then formally admitted to a sacred college where he studied art and literature until his father, Lorenzo de Medici died. He then had to leave to take care of family business and didn't return to Rome until 1560, where he continued to study and moved up the ladder of the church, from preist to bishop in a matter of days, and then enthroned the name of Leo X 2 days later. He was now the Pope. He discouraged reforms at the fifth Lateran Council, and he responded inadequately to the Reformation, excommunicating Martin Luther in 1521 and failing to address the need for change, a lapse that signaled the end of the unified Western church. He then died.
