Freelancer profile translated to English.
Back to original languageAbout Hugo
Graduated in audioprosthetics and holder of a master's degree in sensory and motor neuroprosthetics, I have been working in the healthcare sector for several years.
My professional experiences and the development of my skills in the field in France and abroad have allowed me to hold the position of Clinical and Technical Manager for the world leader in cochlear implants for several years.
I was able to acquire varied skills in both clinical and technical aspects (settings, product characteristics, complex cases, electrophysiological measurements) and sales & business (Head of Sales, product promotion, customer relations, B2B, B2C, external and internal training sessions).
With this expertise in the field of implantable medical devices (type III) as well as in the autonomous management of several audiology practices, I wish to offer my technical, clinical, and relational skills to professionals in the sector.
Having had the opportunity to manage and successfully complete the construction of a scientific study at the National Acoustic Laboratories in Sydney, leading to its publication in a prestigious journal (Scientific Reports by Nature), I have mastered scientific terminology and the construction of clinical studies.
All these skills enable me to work in the healthcare sector and particularly with the various stakeholders involved in the medical device market.
