By the French revolution it was to be fled in a forced manner from Lyon and appeared itself 1793 in Paris. There he became pupil of Pierre Joseph Desault, which was so impressed of the Bichats that he accepted him to his house. Two years worked Bichat for Desault, which entrusted him also with the line journal de Chirurgie, and continued to operate at the same time its own research in anatomy and physiology.
Bichat created 1796 the Mdicale de Paris, a scientific combination of progressive physicians. 1797 it began private courses, demonstrations and lectures in anatomy to hold Physiolgie and surgery.

Despite the fact that he worked without microscope, he discovered 21 different fabric types in the human body and that diseases attack the fabric of the organs and not the entire organ. Bichat extended the organ pathology of G.B. Morgagnis and put the foundation for Rudolf Virchows later Zellular pathology.
