Meaning of "galvanist" in English

A "galvanist" is a person who studies or practices galvanism, which is the phenomenon of muscle contraction when stimulated by electric currents, first observed by Luigi Galvani in the late 18th century. It can also refer more broadly to individuals interested in the therapeutic applications of electricity or those who apply the principles of electrotherapy. Traditionally, a galvanist might have been involved in early experiments exploring the effects of electricity on biological systems, which laid the groundwork for modern electrophysiology and electrotherapy techniques.
