Freelancer profile translated to English.

Description

I specialize in disseminating reference medical information to the general public, patients, and health professionals. A veterinarian and neurobiologist, I have carried out my mission within patient associations in France and the United States (HIV/AIDS, viral hepatitis, rare diseases), medical publishing houses (Masson, Vidal), and the Santé.fr website (Ministry of Health). Furthermore, I am a visiting lecturer at the DU in General Medicine at the University of Sorbonne Paris Nord, where I teach critical analysis of medical information and co-facilitate GEPRI (reflective practice teaching groups).
