bio
Etienne Nouguez has a PhD in sociology and has been a research fellow at the CNRS since 2011. He is pursuing his research in two complementary axes. The first axis aims to uncover the ways in which markets are structured and health products (medicines, food, drugs) are valued through the study of relations between regulatory agencies, pharmaceutical companies, experts, healthcare professionals and consumers.

bio
Patrick Castel’s research is underpinned by a theoretical framework centered on three perspectives: the sociology of organized action, the sociology of medicine and professions, and the sociology of science.
Two main themes run through his research: the organization of medical activities and the processes of rationalization involved in this, and the processes of designing and implementing public healthcare policies.
