Abstract
After a brilliant career as a clinician and anatomopathologist, André-Thomas (1868-1963) spent the last 30 years of his life validating the components of neurological examinations of newborns and infants. This novel approach was developed through long examinations of several hundreds of normal and sick children, notably those with anencephaly. By combining his vast knowledge of physiology with the results of his experimental work, André-Thomas built the foundations of a speciality that did not exist before his time: neuropaediatrics. His Études neurologiques (neurological studies), medical in nature but also very literary, echoing his illustrious predecessors of the 19th century, made him a transmitter of knowledge, a man of transition, from the anatomoclinical method of the 19th century to the standardised investigation techniques of the 20th century.
