Research activities

For several years now, my research has focused mainly on the relationship with the body and the rights we have over the living and our lives. The end of life is one of the themes to which I have devoted much of my work. I'm also very interested in understanding the law and the complementarity between law and ethics. I always try to develop interdisciplinarity or, failing that, multidisciplinarity.

I've had the opportunity to lead several multidisciplinary research teams in funded projects I've led, most recently a project entitled "Cinema and Law: Comparative Investigation of Bioethical Dilemmas"; currently, I'm leading a project entitled "Understanding the possible reluctance of healthcare professionals towards end-of-life laws".

I also participate in the popularization of research and the transmission of knowledge by regularly offering conferences (Université Ouverte, Espace de Réflexion Éthique Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes, etc.
