I am Deputy Head of the Center for the History of Women Philosophers and Scientists, as well as Post-doctoral Researcher and Assistant Professor for Philosophy at Paderborn University.

My research is particularly focused on the early modern period. My research investigates moral theories and the understanding of man in society in female philosophers such as Marie de Gournay, Sophie Germain, Gabrielle Suchon and Émilie du Châtelet.

However, my primary research interest lies in the interdisciplinary nexus of medical and anatomical theory in the early modern period with humanism and moral theories. I employ an interdisciplinary approach, analysing the functioning of the human body and the connection between bodily dysfunctions and moral behaviour.

I received my PhD at the University of Strasbourg, with a dissertation on Montaigne, Descartes and the question of original sin. I have published my book Soigner le corps humain. Péchés et remèdes chez Montaigne et Descartes with Classiques Garnier.
