Sociology – Inserm

Jeremy K. Ward is a sociologist and research fellow at Inserm in the CERMES3 laboratory. I’m interested in the emergence of public debates and public attitudes to science on medical issues. My approach lies at the intersection of political sociology, the sociology of science and the sociology of cognition and representations. My work has focused mainly on vaccination in France, but also on a range of other subjects such as the prescription of hydroxychloroquine as a treatment for Covid-19, public perception of what constitutes a conflict of interest, and of clinical trials.
