Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I specialize in disseminating authoritative medical information to the general public, patients, and healthcare professionals. As a veterinarian and neurobiologist, I have served in patient associations in France and the United States (HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis, rare diseases), with medical publishing houses (Masson, Vidal), and on the Santé.fr website (Ministry of Health). Additionally, I am an adjunct lecturer at the University of Sorbonne Paris Nord's General Medicine DU, where I teach critical analysis of medical information and co-facilitate GEPRI (reflective practice learning groups).
