From 1909 to 1922, Darier was head of the clinical department at the Hôpital Saint-Louis.[7] He was one of the "big five" of the Paris School of Dermatology, along with Ernest Henri Besnier (1831–1909), Louis-Anne-Jean Brocq (1856–1928), Raymond Sabouraud (1864–1938) and Jean Alfred Fournier (1832–1915).
Darier wrote the dermatology textbook Précis de dermatologie, which was published in 1909 and translated into Spanish, German and English.[1] He was also the editor of the dermatological encyclopedia Nouvelle Pratique Dermatologique, which was published in eight volumes, beginning in 1936.
