ABSTRACT
The dates on which Antonio Gimbernat studied at the Navy Royal College of Surgery in Cadiz (Real Colegio de Cirugía de la Armada, RCCA) show some discrepancies between different authors. A detailed reading of the Royal College archives, especially the books of enrollments kept in the Department of History of Medicine at the University of Cadiz, allows us to clarify this issue. In this contribution we present the academic records of Gimbernat in Cadiz, as well as annotations on his participation in college life, where his remarkable vocation for anatomy is reflected. On the other hand, we will see aspects that have had influence on his curriculum during the short but productive and notable period of studies in the Royal College. Moreover, we will analyze the contents of the academic curriculum followed by Gimbernat, which was designed by Virgili, although some other aspects of the academic life of the RCCA were not supported by our honoree surgeon. Finally, through generic documents on the customs and habits of the Navy Royal College of Surgery in Cadiz we outline how Gimbernat’s life and habits were during his time as college member (AU)
