title: [Claude Bernard and the boundaries of experimental physiology].
abstract: Claude Bernard set some of the boundaries for the program developed by himself in his Introduction à l'étude de la médicine expérimentale, which seems to be questioned by the very existence of biology of evolution and biology of development. Here, according to a Bernardian perspective, the author discusses possible fundamentals for this apparent limitation.
