Organized by the Institute of Health Law at the University of Neuchâtel, the program aims to broaden the methodological skills of doctoral students (mainly in law, and others fields such as natural and social sciences) who participate in it and integrate an interdisciplinary and interprofessional perspective on “Health, Medicine and Society” to understand contemporary health problems and challenges.

The program’s objective is to introduce participants to different legal theories and extralegal tools, methods and theories of the social sciences and humanities. The theme chosen for the 2024/2025 academic year is Gender, Health and Law.

The interdisciplinary emphasis is the signature strength of the program and constitutes an original and unique offer. The program is designed to train participants to diversify their research focuses and skills and reali ze original contributions in their disciplinary fields as well as in the broad area of public health and medicine.

The second seminar will be an interactive session where participants will undertake a feminist reinterpretation of notable Swiss health law cases, such as the Yasmin Pills case. This ex ercise will allow the participants to apply the methods / approaches discussed during the first seminar. It will be directed by the two co -directors of the program, Professors Mél anie Levy and Sandra Hotz.
