Francis Berenbaum is a professor of medicine at Sorbonne University, head of the rheumatology department at Saint-Antoine Hospital in Paris, and a researcher at Inserm. A renowned specialist in osteoarthritis, he has devoted his career to understanding this disease and finding new ways to better prevent and treat it. He has headed several French and international learned societies in the field of joint diseases and has published numerous scientific papers that are now considered benchmarks. But beyond research, his commitment is above all focused on patients: improving their quality of life, relieving their pain, and giving them the keys to better understand their disease.
