BATIR: Bioethics Acting Towards Interdisciplinary Research
This project generally aims to elucidate the characteristics and dynamics of interdisciplinary research in a theoretical and analytical way at the time of the Brocher stay, and later on based on empirical data, head-on by using bioethics as a case study and to provide scientifically sound benchmarks for the future assessment of interdisciplinary research. The specific project aims are - To explore the bioethics field as a paradigm example of interdisciplinarity in order to reflect more broadly on the characteristics of interdisciplinary research. - To develop the methodology for establishing and testing benchmarks for successful interdisciplinary research in bioethics so as to propose benchmarks to be probed for other areas of interdisciplinarity. The precise objectives of the stay in Brocher foundation are - to produce 3 articles that will be the foundation of such an ambitious project. - to work out methodologies for international comparisons in interdisciplinarity research

I am Assistant Professor in Social Anthropology at the ENS de Lyon and my research interests focuses on contemporary mental health issues in France within political and moral anthropology. I aim at examining the links between the political and moral context of a major social transition and the local, moral and emotional conceptions of self and personhood in clinical setting.
