Henry John Hayles Bond, FRCP (22 December 1801 – 1 September 1883) was a British physician and academic. From 1851 to 1872, he was Regius Professor of Physic at the University of Cambridge.[1]
Early life
[edit]Bond was born on 22 December 1801 in Wheatacre, Norfolk, England, to the Rev William Bond, an academic and clergyman, and his wife Martha Bond (née Hayles).[1] He was educated at Norwich Grammar School, then an all-boys private school in Norwich. The high master at the time of his attendance was the Rev Edward Valpy.[2] He then studied medicine in a variety of European cities including Cambridge, London, Edinburgh and Paris.[1] He graduated from Corpus Christi College, Cambridge with a Bachelor of Medicine (MB) degree in 1825.[2] In November 1828, he was awarded the Licentiate in Physic by the University of Cambridge.[3] He remained to undertake postgraduate research and completed his Doctor of Medicine (MD) degree in 1831.[2]
Medical career
[edit]By the time of completing his doctorate in 1831, Bond had established a large medical practice in Cambridge.[2] He was elected a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians (FRCP) in 1835. He additionally worked as a physician in Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge, after it was founded in 1842.[1]
In 1851, he was appointed Regius Professor of Physic at the University of Cambridge. The General Medical Council was founded in 1958 and he was a member from 1858 to 1863.[2] He lectured regularly at the university and his only publication, Analysis of an Elementary Course of Lectures on Pathology (1866), was a collection of some of his lectures.[4] He stopped practising medicine towards the end of time at the University of Cambridge and he finally resigned the Regius Professorship in 1872.[2]
Later life
[edit]Bond retired from academia but remained living in Cambridge.[1] In June 1882, he fractured his hip, which left him confined to a bed.[4] On 3 September 1883, he died at his home on Regent Street, Cambridge; he was 81 years old. He was buried in one of the city's cemeteries.[2]
Personal life
[edit]On 11 December 1834, Bond married Mary Carpenter, daughter of William Carpenter. One of Mary's uncles was Sir Edward Berry, an admiral who had served with Horatio Nelson.[2] Together, they had many children.[1]
