Claire Lenne – Emergency doctor
Claire Lenne has been an emergency doctor since 2015. For the past nine years, she has worked mainly at the public hospital on Reunion Island. She regularly carries out long-term missions in unusual environments: scientific expedition ships, oil clinics in Africa, medical evacuations over the Pacific, luxury cruise ships, dispensaries in the Amazon rainforest, nuclear power plants in China. She recently accompanied a major logistical expedition in tracked tractors across the Antarctic. She has published two books with Editions Balland, “Docteur Globe-trotter” in 2022, and “Tour du monde en blouse blanche” in 2024, which combine medicine and travel, full of adventures and reflections drawn from everyday life.
This brainer takes part in round-table discussions, offers improvisation sessions and the following solo talks:
Doctor Globe-trotter
Dr. Claire Lenne presents a number of care contexts she has experienced: on a scientific expedition ship, in an oil clinic in Gabon, in a dispensary in Guyana's Amazon rainforest, on a luxury cruise ship off the coast of Iceland; but also in the emergency department of Saint-Pierre et Miquelon or during the Antarctic Raid.
A personal recipe for success
Dealing with fear, having ambition, working on self-confidence: these are just some of the challenges that Dr Claire Lenne proposes to take up, between knowledge and sharing experiences.
