# Pierre Barrère

> Pierre Barrère was a French physician and naturalist. Barrère practised in Perpignan from 1717. His thesis on medical botany brought him into contact with Antoine de Jussieu who helped him become a naval surgeon. In 1722, he voyaged to Cayenne where he stayed for five years. Back in Perpignan, he became professor of botany at the university and doctor in the military hospital. The plant genus Barreria was named after him but it is now a synonym of Brunia. He is commemorated in Vanilla barrereana.
