Françoise Darcel is currently a staff neurologist at the Hospital in
Saint Pierre (Reunion). A student of Prof. Jean Pecker and Prof.
Olivier Sabouraud, she directed the Neuropathology Laboratory of the
CHU of Rennes, France from 1975 to 1995. Her collaboration with
Prof. J.M. Brucher began with joint projects between the
Neurosurgery Department of Rennes (Prof. J.M. Scarabin) and the UCL
Neuropathology Department. An active member of the EORTC Brain
Tumor Group until she assumed her position in Saint Pierre in 1996,
Dr. Darcel's current research concentrates on analysis of the
epidemiological particularities and the histological distribution of
brain tumors, the incidence of which appears particularly low in
that part of the world.
