About Germain Sée
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germain_S%C3%A9e
Germain Sée (February 6, 1818 – May 12, 1896) was a French clinician who was a native of Ribeauvillé, Haut-Rhin.
He studied medicine in Paris, obtaining his doctorate in 1846 with a dissertation on ergotism. In 1855 he became médecin des hôpitaux in Paris, and subsequently worked at La Rochefoucauld (1857), Beaujon (1861), Pitié (1862) and Charité (1868) hospitals. In 1867 he succeeded Armand Trousseau (1801–1867) as professor of therapeutics and materia medica, and in 1876 attained the chair of clinical medicine at the Hôtel-Dieu de Paris, a position he held for the remainder of his career.
Sée specialized in the study of lung and cardiovascular diseases, and he made contributions involving research of chorea and its association with rheumatic disorders. He conducted extensive studies of various drugs, being an advocate of antipyrine for headaches, and sodium salicylate for treatment of rheumatism.
Among his writings were the nine volume Médecine clinique, a work that he co-authored with Frédéric Labadie-Lagrave (1844–1917), and Leçons de pathologie expérimentale, a treatise on experimental pathology that was edited and published by Maurice Raynaud (1834–1881).
In 1869 he became a member of the Académie de Médecine.
..."Un autre fils de Meyer Sée - qui abandonne alors son prénom pour adopter ceux de Joseph-Daniel, également portés par un parent banquier à Colmar - opte pour la carrière médicale : il s’agit de Germain Sée (Ribeauvillé 1818 - Paris 1896). Reçu docteur à la faculté de Paris en 1846, celui-ci passe son agrégation, et y est nommé professeur, succédant en 1866 au célèbre clinicien Armand Trousseau dans la chaire de thérapeutique. Il publie de nombreux travaux et est élu en 1868 à l’Académie de Médecine. Appelé au chevet de Napoléon III en juillet 1870, il diagnostique le calcul rénal dont les suites seront fatales en 1873, mais se voit interdire de divulguer ses conclusions en raison de la préparation de la guerre. Il sera fait commandeur de la Légion d’honneur (11). Une rue de Paris porte le nom du Dr-Germain-Sée"...
