摘要：

Augusta Dejerine-Klumpke (1859-1927) was the first woman to be appointed as an intern (resident) to a French university hospital in Paris. She became renowned, not only because of her marriage to the famous neurologist Joseph Jules Dejerine, but also for her work and publications as a neuroanatomist, a neurologist, a neuroscientist and as the first person to describe lower brachial plexus palsy. She influenced generations of doctors with her contribution to the description and treatment of neurological diseases. She received 2 Legion of Honor medals, one in 1913 with the rank of Chevalier for her scientific work, and one in 1921 with the rank of Officer, for her work in treating wounded soldiers during the Great war. She was elected the first female president of the French Society of Neurology in 1914 and published over 56 papers on neurology and neuroanatomy. She still is an inspiration for all women willing to accomplish a medical career. © 2014 Elsevier Inc.
