Dr. Bruno Halioua | Health Professions | Best Researcher Award

Dr. Bruno Josué Halioua, in Paris, is a highly experienced medical professional specializing in dermatology, infectious diseases, and tropical medicine. He completed his studies in medicine, becoming an intern at the Hôpitaux de Paris in 1984 and subsequently training in several hospitals, including Saint-Antoine, Sainte-Anne, and Cimiez in Nice. He earned his Doctorate in Medicine in 1990 from Nice University with a thesis on ocular and lipid toxicity of acitretin. His career includes working as a clinical assistant at the University Hospital of Geneva and serving as the chief of clinics in various hospitals in France, including the Centre Hospitalier Intercommunal de Villeneuve Saint-Georges and the Institut Alfred Fournier. Additionally, Dr. Halioua has significant research experience, including work at the Centre International de Recherches Dermatologiques and the Centre de Recherches du Service de Santé des Armées. His research focused on skin-related biochemistry, including the characterization of human corneal envelopes and herpes gestationis antigens. He holds multiple certifications and degrees, including a DEA in cutaneous biology, a DES in dermatology and venereology, and a DESC in infectious and tropical pathology. He is also a prominent figure in clinical and laboratory research in his fields of expertise.
