Économiste de la santé et analyste politique de profession, originaire du Canada, je reste attaché au pays d’origine de ma famille, la France, et à mon pays de naissance, le Japon. Récent diplômé de la Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, je travaille pour le International Vaccine Access Center associé à Johns Hopkins. De part mon expérience dans ces trois pays (plus, les États-Unis), je valorise une certaine ouverture d’esprit dans tous mes projets, conscient des défis apportés par la collaboration au niveau international.
I’m passionate about my work and I hope to make a meaningful contribution for more accessible health knowledge and health care. For a few years, I have been focusing my work on vaccine economics (demand forecasting, logistics, economic impact assessment) and health literacy (PIAAC, IALSS, EHLQ). My work for the Interdisciplinary Journal of Health Sciences lead me to work on open access publishing, while my academic curriculum oriented my research on waiting times in health care, universal healthcare coverage and adverse event in medication for the elderly.
More personally, I’m a bit of a degree-stacker (I earned two bachelor’s and two master’s degrees and I am thinking about a PhD), a self-proclaimed relaxed gentleman traveller, inventive chef, and amateur saxophonist.
My blogs
Lately, I started a new blogging endeavour with my father: NonSolumData.com. Building on our experience (and enthusiasm!) for the social determinants of health, we share the pen to talk about issues and advancements in economics and public policy in the fields of education and health.
I am restructuring the blogs HealthLiteracy.Info and its French counterpart LitteratieEnSante.Info to be more responsive to the demands of health care professionals, clinical managers and patient advocacy groups, while ensuring a solid ground in evidence-based policy-making.
