Influenced by Bernard, D'Arsonval decided to devote his life to research. In 1892, he became director of the new laboratory of biophysics at the College de France and continued in that post until 1910. His main contributions were in

It was later used for 361: 366: 210:. Instead they seemed to have beneficial effects. He pioneered the therapeutic application of high frequency current to the body, founding the field of 206:
