Solution/atmospheric chemistry was my area, and continues by symbolic computation; examples include http://www.mapleapps.com/categories/science/chemistry/html/Ab6.html and http://curvebank.calstatela.edu/acid_base/acid_base.htm.
Since 1970, Denison chemistry students have regularly expressed an interest in the chemical progenitors of Denison Chemistry faculty. I have updated that information in the early 2000's; guess what? We are all "of the Renaissance" and, with a few liberties, share a common professional ancestor, Antonio Musa Brasavola (1500-1555), a "physician/cleric/lawyer" in Ferrara, not to mention Arabic forbears. For your own chemistry lineage you may find http://www.scs.uiuc.edu/~mainzv/Web_Genealogy/ of interest.
Self-experimentation has a long history - and continues unabated. Lawrence Altman's book "Who Goes First?" describes some cases. Some scientists, however, put themselves into their ideas and theories with singular confidence, e.g., Louis Pasteur, Isaac Newton, J.B.S. Haldane ("On Being Your Own Rabbit"), among them. If you find examples with scientific rigor, send an e-mail.
