AbstractThe purpose of this presentation is to acknowledge the pioneering work of a key historical figure who contributed to the available knowledge in anatomy and biomechanics, developed political and social infrastructure to promote the maturation and standardization of chiropractic education, and influenced a paradigmatic shift away from a monocausal belief in the origin of disease. Literature search and archives retrieval were used. Janse was a man with personal intellectual integrity and whose personal commitment was driven by a family experience. Evidence shows that Janse took bold initiatives to influence the chiropractic profession and give it the opportunity to develop as a legitimate healthcare discipline. Janse was a visionary clinical scientist and educator whose 38-year tenure as president of a chiropractic college enabled him to influence the course and development of his profession.
