Dr. Camille Rousseau, MD
Clinical pharmacologist and endocrine liaison, Montreal. Every card on this desk crosses her bench before it is filed - she is the lens pass in the Clip Cross Lens File method.
Camille Rousseau trained in clinical pharmacology and then spent years doing the unglamorous part of hospital work: medication reviews on busy wards with endocrine and metabolic patients. The job is reading charts, catching interactions, and translating prescribing documents into sentences a patient can act on at seven in the morning. It leaves you with a specific conviction - most drug questions are label questions asked in plainer words - and that conviction is why this desk exists.
On the bench her role is defined narrowly on purpose. She does not decide what readers should take; she checks that what the page says matches what the label says, and that the counselling advice would survive an actual ward round. Doses, empty-stomach gaps, interaction lists, weight-count intervals - those lines carry her review, and the snapshot on each page says when she last read it in full.
Two disclosures, in the open: she holds no pharmaceutical industry positions and takes no manufacturer money, in line with the editorial standards; and she does not answer individual medical questions by mail - the contact page explains why the desk holds that line. Write [email protected] only about the cards themselves.
Professional profile: ORCID 0009-0003-6612-8841. Post reaches her at 2055 Rue Peel, Suite 410, Montreal, QC H3A 1T6, Canada.
