History

edit

It was in this establishment that the first “test-tube baby” in France,[2] Amandine, was born on February 24, 1982, thanks to the teams of biologist Jacques Testart and obstetrician-gynecologist René Frydman, as well as the head of department Émile Papiernik.[3]

René Frydman's teams are also at the origin of France's first "baby medicine", Umut-Talha, born on January 26, 2011, in the hospital.[4]
