L’utilité de ce genre d’institutions est incontestable. Car le monde moderne est sans cesse confronté à des innovations, médicales ou autres, qui s’appliquent à l’homme ou à son environnement proche. Ce lieu est donc nécessaire pour préparer la matière intellectuelle qui sera ensuite transférée aux citoyens afin que ceux- ci puissent se prononcer quant à la légitimité de ces innovations.

Carla Pezzia completed her PhD in anthropology in 2013 at the University of Texas at San Antonio. After her stay at the Brocher, she will begin a postdoctoral research fellowship in the Department of Hospital Medicine at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio. Carla also completed a Master of Public Health degree from the University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth in 2006.
Carla’s research examines the intersection of structural violence and the recovery of mental illness and addiction. At the macro level, her work focuses on access to mental health care in a globalized community. At the micro level, she explores shifts in identity and selfhood between states of illness and recovery.
