Abstract: This article illustrates the main stages of the scientific career of Dr Andrée Tixier-Vidal, a pioneer in cell biology research in France. She made important discoveries in the field of hormone secretion and neuronal morphogenesis. She played a key role in developing pituitary and neuronal cultures and using electron microscopy to study cellular structures. Her scientific influence continues to irradiate through her students and collaborators.<br /> (© 2022 Société Française des Microscopies and Société de Biologie Cellulaire de France.
