I am a neonatal pediatrician at Lille University Hospital. My research interests focus on developmental care (environmental and behavioral strategies to reduce stress in the premature newborn and enhance competence development). I am also particularly interested in the outcome of children born prematurely, especially those born between 32 and 36 SA (moderate and late prematurity).
Research interests
- Developmental care
- Outcome of children born prematurely
