I am an historian of medicine and sciences. I received my PhD from the University of Lausanne and the University Jean Jaurès of Toulouse in 2017. My dissertation retraces the history of sexology in French-speaking Switzerland, from 1890 to 1970 and examines the way the sciences of sex and sexuality became a medical speciality during the 20th century. My current project focuses on medical expertise on violence and other atrocities done during the Great War, with the title of “The Experts on the Battlefield. The Birth of War Forensics Interventions (1914 – 1921)”.
