Paris School (Medicine)
The Paris School describes a branch of clinical medicine that emerged in France at the transition from the 18th to the 19th century. It was strictly clinical-symptomatologically and pathologically-anatomically oriented.
The representatives of the Paris School included the physiologist François Magendie , who is considered to be one of the pioneers of modern drug therapy: “Within the Paris School, the physiologist Magendie in particular put pharmacology on a new, experimental basis using pure active ingredients from 1820 onwards. " .
In psychiatry, the strongest impulses in the first half of the 19th century came from the Paris School represented by Philippe Pinel and Jean Étienne Esquirol .
