He obtained a doctorate in history from the École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales in 2008, and the Habilitation ŕ Diriger des Recherches from the ENS-PSL, in 2022. In the field of health history, many of his publications reflect on the critical use of archival materials. His latest work focuses on the history of the epidemiology of mental disorders in Canada. Emmanuel Delille has long been working with IHRIM. Its broadly interdisciplinary focus and methodology are likely to involve lecturers, PhD students and students well beyond the perimeter of the laboratory. During his stay, he will be pursuing a research collaboration with scientific partners at IHRIM around a collective publication (to be published in 2023 in the journal History of Psychiatry) with the DSM team ("Saying Mental Health/ Dire la santé mentale ") led by philosopher and anthropologist Samuel Lézé, on mental health issues.
