A Compass for the Aftermath

september 28, 2020

Whether biologists, doctors, economists, lawyers or sociologists, 18 professors - active professors on the permanent chairs, as well as emeritus professors and visiting professors on the annual chairs at the Collège de France - set out to decipher the health crisis throughout the containment period. Today, these 20 articles have been brought together in a ground-breaking book, co-published by the Fondation du Collège de France and The Collège de France Publishing Department.

"The crisis highlights the essential role of independent, objective research in supporting political decision-making and informing the public. These decipherments provide keys to understanding and, we hope, a 'compass for the After'" - Pr Marc Fontecave, President of the Fondation du Collège de France
