Mobility and improvement of air quality (2020-) project in collaboration with Sandrine Mathy and Anna Risch [ResCampus]
In February 2020, we collected original data through an online survey on networks and sustainable behaviours among 334 individuals working in ten research labs located in the University Grenoble Alps’ campus. In order to collect data on networks, we used similar questions as the one used in the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health), which is one of the most frequently used databases when studying peer effects.

HIV prevention among sex workers in Dakar, Senegal (2015 -) project in collaboration with Aurélia Lépine
In 2015, together with Aurélia Lépine (London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine) and in collaboration with the DLSI of the Ministry of Health in Senegal, we have started a new longitudinal data set of female sex workers (2015: 651 FSWs interviewed, 2017: 592 FSWs of which 441 already surveyed in 2015). The data set includes information on risk aversion and altruism elicited using real payment and information on sexual and health behaviours including biological markers. We investigate the over-reporting of condom use thanks to the list randomization methodology as well as the impact of the registration programme of female sex workers on their physical and mental health.
Road safety among motorcyclists in Delhi, India (2010-2014) project in collaboration with Michael Grimm
Data was collected in Delhi among 902 motorcyclists (either drivers or passengers). The data set contains information on helmet and motorbike use, socio-demographic characteristics, experiences of road accidents and traffic offences as well as expectations regarding the financial and medical consequences of helmet non-use. In this project, we investigate the relation between different types of prevention behaviors as well as the impact of risk preferences on these attitudes. We also study the formation and influence of perceived consequences of helmet non-use and simulate the effect of different road safety measures.
Adherence to antibiotic treatments in France (2014-2017) project led by Bruno Ventelou
100 pharmacies in four different regions participated to a randomized controlled trial aiming at modifying the delivery mode of antibiotics. 3/4 of these pharmacies replaced pre-packed boxes by a per-unit dispensing of tablets in the exact numbers prescribed. Information on adherence to treatment and recycling habits have been then collected among 1200 patients. We evaluate the environmental, economic and public health consequences of this intervention.
Vaccination decisions in France (2015-2017) project led by Judith Mueller
This multidisciplinary project aims at investigating population preferences towards vaccination for different diseases with a focus on elements that could be included in vaccination promotion campaigns. A first study has been implemented among 775 students in Rennes and considered vaccination against a rare, severe and rapidly evolving disease. Using a discrete choice experiment, participants were asked to decide whether to vaccinate immediately or not in different scenarios varying along the following dimensions: epidemic situation, adverse event, information on vaccination coverage and potential for indirect protection.
