Explanation:

Sir Hans Sloane was a British physician from Ulster. From his early youth, he collected plants, minerals and various natural peculiarities. He studied medicine for four years in London, but his interests were mainly focused on botany and pharmacy. He later traveled to France, where he spent some time at the universities of Paris and Montpellier. Upon his return to England, he was soon elected to the Royal Society. In 1687 he became a fellow of the College of Physicians and traveled to Jamaica. In 1741, Sloane retired, devoting himself to developing his collection of "oddities". After his death, the collection was the base of the collections of the British Museum established in 1753.
