Career
He was a professor of medicine and obstetrics. Wrisberg studied the sympathetic nervous system and described the Wrisberg ganglion of the cardiac plexus. He also wrote a text on hernias.
The cuneiform cartilages are sometimes called the "Wrisberg cartilages".[1]
There are two nerves known as the nerve of Wrisberg.
gollark: I'm sure Google has lots of spare GPU/TPU power. They have some ridiculous GPT-3-scale image/text model in development now, and use BERT-like entities for search parsing.
gollark: I'd think that it would be possible to detect it if you had a lot of samples of it versus real human text. And there was this demo highlighting differences between human and GPTous text, via highlighting low-probability-from-the-model words (which are often also the most important).
gollark: I wonder if Google/search engines generally can detect GPT-3ous content yet.
gollark: That sounds hard, actually.
gollark: What if we generate VAST quantities of novel and interesting content?
