Background

Academy members initially convened at the Paris Faculty of Medicine (or Faculté de Médecine de Paris). Four years later, the academy acquired its own headquarters, in the form of a mansion in the rue where it was located until 1850. The office was then relocated to a vaulted hall of the Hospital of Charity on rue Saint Pierre.

Their current facility on Rue Bonaparte was designed by the French architect Justin Rochet, and was constructed between 1899 and 1902.

In addition to Medicine, the academy has also been known to concern itself with access thereto.

As of 2020, Maurice Tubiana is the president of the academy.
