Mr. Ferran was an illustrious doctor and bacteriologist of the village. He discovered the vaccine against cholera, and some others against rabies and tuberculosis. In 1907 he won the prize from the "Academie de Sciences" of Paris.

Jaime Ferran y Clua (1852-1919) was a Spanish bacteriologist and sanitarian, contemporary of Koch, and said by his fellows to have made some of the discoveries attributed to Koch. As early as 1855, he wrote on immunization against cholera. In 1893, his work on this subject was translated into French with the title L'Inoculation préventive contre le Cholera.
Tuberculosis is another disease in which Ferran was always deeply interested. Some of his ideas on the transmission and virulence of tuberculosis are revolutionary.
