During the 1780s, I spoke out against the idea of expanding the power of the national government, I was viewed as the leader of the anti-federalists. In 1787, I was elected, along with John Lansing, Jr. and Alexander Hamilton to represent New York at the Philadelphia convention, the goal of this convention being to revise the Articles of Confederation.

Soon after this I wrote a letter to Governor Clinton, the governor of New York. In this letter I gave explicit reasons for my departure from the convention and informed him of my strong opposition to the constitution. I am most famous for writing many essays, under the pseudonym of Brutus, in which I argued federalist ideologies; I began each of my essays opposing these views by addressing these essays to the citizens of New

He made fairly significant breakthroughs in specific areas of science that would include the role of environmental factors in development; “he investigated the effect of a number of variables – dilute or concentrated sea water, ultraviolet irradiation, temperature, hydration or dehydration— on embryo development.” He observed “the ‘wave of negativity’ that sweeps over the egg cell at the onset of fertilization envelope separation, preventing fertilization by more than one spermatozoon” and “correctly reasoned that it was this wave, not the physical separation of the envelope, that is
