Curriculum

Following my training at the ISPED, Bordeaux, in public health and epidemiology, I prepared my thesis at the Rennes medical school which I defended in 2005. I then spent a year in Burma as an epidemiologist for Aide Médicale Internationale. When I returned to France, I took a Hospital-University Assistant position (lecturing + research + methodology consultation missions) in the Department of epidemiology and public health of the CHU de Rennes, before joining the EHESP at the end of 2010.

Research

I carry out my research activities within the multi-topic clinical research centre CIC-P 1414 at the CHU de Rennes.

Heavily involved in the multiple sclerosis field, I have carried out several studies concerning the epidemiology and natural history of this disease which affects young adults (incidence, mortality, handicap progression). Another field of interest is that of health safety and pharmaco-epidemiology : real life study of the efficacy and safety of treatments. I participate in the work carried out by the French MS Observatory, which is part of the 10 cohorts that won the Investments for the future project in 2010.
