Jean Quenu

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jean Auguste Quenu (1889-1975) was a French surgeon, and a member of the Académie Nationale de Médecine. His father, Edouard Quenu, was the first surgeon in France to apply asepsis during surgical operations and deliveries. At the Académie, Jean Quenu was Albert Besson's colleague. During the summer, they were also neighbours in the same seaside village, Audresselles.
