Resumo
Charles-Edouard Brown-Séquard (1817-1894) fue un importante científico reconocido por sus investigaciones realizadas sobre la médula espinal. Nació en la isla de Mauricio, adquirió un gusto por la literatura, incluso para partir a París con 20 años junto con su madre para convertirse en escritor, al fracasar en este sueño, inició su carrera de medicina, destacándose por sus descubrimientos en la fisiología de la médula espinal, ampliamente descritos en su tesis de grado en 1846 y posteriormente en 1855 cuando acuñó el síndrome con su nombre.
