I am an Assistant Professor of Public Health at CRESS. I perform research on methods to evaluate therapeutic interventions in psychiatry and teach medical students and master’s degree students in clinical research (evaluation of therapeutic interventions).
I am currently leading two projects: the development of a Core Outcome Set for adult depression, the development of the e-cohort ComPaRe Depression.
In my research, I conduct multidisciplinary research by adapting methods from humanities and social science to improve research on therapeutic interventions. I believe that Patient and Public involvement is critical for clinical research, therefore I use participatory research methods in my studies.
Also, I strive to work for better awareness of mental disorders and mental health in our society through diverse initiatives such as this short movie about depression or this collaborative book in French.
