role in the project
Gérard Shadili will contribute clinical expertise in child and adolescent psychiatry, trauma-informed care, addictive behaviours, and early intervention for vulnerable young people. He will support the adaptation and implementation of the VOICE intervention within the French context, contribute to stakeholder engagement and referral pathway development, and provide expertise on the identification and support of adolescents experiencing trauma-related distress, adverse childhood experiences, and associated mental health difficulties. He will also contribute to the evaluation of strategies aimed at improving access to mental health care and specialist services and support the integration of VOICE activities within the French child and adolescent mental health care pathway through his collaboration with the Paris-Saclay clinical team.
general expertise and its relevance for the project
Gérard Shadili is a child and adolescent psychiatrist, addiction specialist, and researcher with extensive experience in the assessment and treatment of adolescents with complex mental health needs, including trauma, borderline personality disorder, eating disorders, self-harm, suicidality, and addictive behaviours. His work focuses on vulnerable young people and improving pathways to appropriate care through integrated and multidisciplinary approaches. He has contributed to research on childhood maltreatment, sexual abuse, psychological distress, and adolescent psychiatric outcomes, all of which are highly relevant to the objectives of the VOICE project.
