Gabriel Andral, a French physician, horn in Paris, Nov. 6, 1707. His father, Guillaume, was a member of the academy and chief physi-cian to the French army in Italy and to Murat, and afterward to Louis XVIII. Through the influence of his father-in-law, Royer-Collard, and also by his fame as the author of the Cli-nique medicale (4 vols. 8vo, 1824-'6), he was appointed in 1827 professor of hygiene in the faculty of Paris, and in 1830 was promoted to the chair of internal pathology. In 1839 he succeeded Broussais as professor of pathology and general therapeutics. In conjunction with Gavarret and Delafond he published researches Sur les modifications de proportion de qaelqnes principes du sang.
