Sushmithadev Kumaradev

PhD student

I completed my postgraduate diploma in anaesthesiology in 2012 in India. Owing to my interest in the management of chronic pain I completed fellowships in chronic pain in India, South Korea and France. It is here in France I wished to be a part of chronic pain-oriented research. I first completed MSc in public health in 2019 and I am now a PhD student working on the heterogeneity in the evolution of pain in inflammatory rheumatic diseases under the guidance of two teams (EpiAgeing & ECAMO).
