I am an assistant professor Public Health at CRESS and former Head of Psychiatry at Hôtel Dieu. I teach clinical epidemiology and psychiatry at Paris Cité University. My research focuses on depression, and more specifically on the pharmacoepidemiology of antidepressant treatments. I work mainly on large-scale population data (SNDS in particular), developing new approaches to make the most of these massive medico-administrative data. I am a member of the scientific committee of the Compare dépression and IPC cohorts.
