Abstract. The features of the life path and scientific work of Academician of the USSR Academy of Medical Sciences A.I. Nesterov are considered. It is shown that the organizational design (scientific research institute, journal, scientific society) of a new scientific discipline and the successful implementation of the scheme proposed by him for the prevention of relapses of rheumatism allow him to be considered the founder of rheumatology in the USSR. The authors believe that the skilful use by the leaders of the Soviet clinic of internal diseases of their administrative resource was one of the main mechanisms that led to the institutionalization and the allocation of new scientific disciplines (V.Kh. Vasilenko – gastroenterology; E.M. Tareev – nephrology).
