Poiseuille was born in Paris, France.

From 1815 to 1816 he studied at the École Polytechnique in Paris. He was trained in physics and mathematics. In 1828 he took the degree of a doctor of science with a dissertation entitled Recherches sur la force du coeur aortique. He was interested in the flow of a humanHuman beings are defined variously in biological, spiritual, and cultural terms, or in combinations thereof. Biologically, they are classified as Homo sapiens ( Latin for knowing man , a primate species of mammal with a highly developed brain. In spiritua bloodBlood is a circulating tissue composed of fluid plasma and cells ( red blood cells, white blood cells, platelets). Medical terms related to blood often begin in hemo or hemato ( BE: haemo and haemato from the Greek word for "blood". Blood of different spe in narrow tubes.

Hagen was born in Konigsberg, Brandenburg- Prussia (today Kaliningrad, Russia). Independentlly of Jean Louis Marie Poiseuille ( 1797- 1869) Hag ( 1797- 1884)). This concerns the voluminal laminar stationary flow of incompressible uniform viscous liquid (so-called Newtonian fluid) through a cylindrical tube with constant circular cross-section. It can be successfully applied to blood flow in capillaries and veins, to air flow in lung alveoli, for the flow through a drinking straw or through a hypodermic needle.

He died in Paris.
