Recherche
Her doctoral research is being supervised by Professors Fabrice Bonnet and François Dabis within the Inserm Bordeaux Population Health Centre (U-1219). It focusses on developing and deploying new technology to better collect patient-reported outcomes (PRO), including quality of life, in patients in long-term, hospital-based, HIV care. By identifying risk profiles for those with poorer quality of life, this work ultimately aims to inform and improve care for those aging with HIV. She was awarded a grant in 2016 from the French NGO Sidaction to carry out this work. This research has also been granted seed funding from the ANRS (French REcherche Nord & sud Sida-HIV Hépatites).
