Research areas: history of mentalities, history of medicine (theory of humors, Renaissance melancholy and hypochondria), Renaissance art and literature. Digital Humanities. I exensively use Zotero for my research.

I completed my PhD at the Paris-Sorbonne & Geneva Universities (2009), and am currently working as a Post-Doctoral fellow at the Université Paris-Diderot (Paris VII). The results of this research project are being progressively published online using an customised Omeka database: http://melancholystories.com

Melancholystories is a website containing a collection of texts and documents related to medicine and melancholy from the Early Modern period. It uses a Coins plug-in so documents can be easily imported through Zotero.
