Expert/Reviewer activities

• Type of activity: semantics expert activity entrusted by the Section for Language Sciences and Information, University of Lausanne (2019-2020) in favour of the team led by Irina Guseva Canu at Unisanté, University of Lausanne, in the framework of the OMEGA-NET project, COST Action CA16216 “Network on the Coordination and Harmonisation of European Occupational Cohorts”.
  • Goal: setting up of a methodology to devise the semantic shared elements of the reference definitions of 'burn-out' in order to formulate a shared definition of the term.
