With a background in demography and social sciences at the École Normale Supérieure de Paris (ENS) and the European Doctoral School of Demography (EDSD 2022-23), I am interested in cause-specific mortality and cause-of-death estimation in resource-limited contexts, both from a quantitative and historical perspective. As a PhD student at the Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (EHESS) and the French Institute for Demographic Studies (INED), my research focuses on multimorbidity and cause-of-death estimation through verbal autopsies in South Africa in collaboration with the African Health Research Institute (AHRI) and in Burkina Faso with the Institute of Population Studies (ISSP). I complement this quantitative work with historical research on the development and circulation of the verbal autopsy method to explore the relationship between methods of data production and public policy.
