Postdoctoral Fellows

Geoffroy Carpier is an anthropologist of science currently working as a postdoctoral researcher at STREAM. He earned his PhD in Sociology and Anthropology at the Université de Rouen in 2021. Funded by the French National Cancer Institute (INCa, 2015-2018), his doctoral research examined an emerging specialization at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) that focused on the promotion and the conduct of medical research on Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM), as well as the concomitant establishment of a new medical specialty, namely “integrative medicine”, since the 1990s. His anthropological work investigates the boundaries of current scientific activities in North America.

Prior to coming to STREAM, Dr. Carpier was a visiting research scholar at New York University (NYU), Department of Anthropology, and a guest researcher at the National Cancer Institute (NCI). As a lecturer, he also taught social sciences for two years in a joint graduate program (Medical School – Department of Political Science) at Université Jean Monnet.

At STREAM, Geoffroy is working on the interface of science and ethics when institutional review committees arrive at judgements about the initiation of cancer trials for new drugs.


Anne-Marie Gagné-JulienAnne-Marie Gagné-Julien is a SSHRC postdoctoral researcher at the Department of Equity, Ethics and Politics, the Centre de recherche en éthique (CRE) and the Canada Research Chair in Feminist Ethics (CREF). Previously, she held FQRSC postdoctoral fellowship at 鶹AV's Biomedical Ethics Unit and the École Normale Supérieure (ENS, Paris), and a postdoctoral fellowship at the Canada Research Chair in Epistemic Injustice and Agentivity. She received a PhD in philosophy of science and psychiatry from the Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM). In 2021, she was awarded the Karl Jaspers Prize by the Association for the Advancement of Philosophy and Psychiatry (AAPP) and the Prix Relève étoile Paul-Gérin-Lajoie by the FRQSC.

Her research interests lie at the intersection of the philosophy and ethics of psychiatry, feminist philosophy of science, and epistemic injustices in health.


Moustapha TouréMoustapha Touré holds a Ph.D. in Development Economics from the University of Sherbrooke and is currently a postdoctoral fellow in 鶹AV’s Department of Epidemiology, Biostatistics, and Occupational Health.

Aware that a healthy population is a fundamental input for development, he was particularly interested in questions of public health and the well-being of populations during his doctoral studies. His doctoral thesis focused on the development and improvement of tools for measuring the quality of life of populations, with a view to improving the comparability of health programs through quality adjusted life years (QALYs) and thereby the effective and efficient use of health resources. Self-motivated, independent, detail-oriented, and creative, Moustapha has received numerous grants and awards throughout his career, including the Spring 2022 Star Student Researcher Award from the Research Center of the Mental Health Institute of Montreal. Currently, Moustapha is working under the supervision of Professors Amélie Quesnel-Vallée and Erin Strumpf, in collaboration with the Quebec Ministry of Health and Social Services, aiming to estimate the costs and impacts of poverty in Quebec. Moustapha will help with his analytical skills, especially in the health component of the project.
