PLASTIC SURGEON

Dr. Jean-Claude Guimberteau was born in 1947. As a Plastic surgeon he specialized in microsurgical replantation and transplantation. He is a member of the Aquitane Hand Institute that treats hand trauma and chronic hand diseases 24h/7.

This experience in hand surgery and microsurgery enabled him to propose a new procedure for tendon reconstruction with a vascularized sliding system.

This was also the starting point for an intellectual voyage that has taken him far from the beaten track and into the largely unknown world of fractals, chaos and complex systems.
