Scientific career
[edit]Patrick Clervoy was the head of the psychiatry department at the Sainte-Anne Army Instruction Hospital. He was also a lecturer at the Val-de-Grâce School. He conducted research on stress and post-traumatic states in collaboration with the Army Biomedical Research Institute. Professor Clervoy was a member of the NATO working group on stress and psychological support in modern military operations. He was also a member of the French Society of Army Medicine and a full member of the Medical-Psychological Society.
In 2007, Patrick Clervoy developed a concept he termed the "Lazarus Syndrome," which he envisioned as a prolonged relational disorder between a person who has gone through an intense traumatic experience and their close family and professional environment. In 2009, he became interested in psychologists, doctors, and psychiatrists working on the ground, often in emergencies.
In November 2012, Patrick Clervoy published a real-time journal of the ten weeks he spent at the military hospital in Kabul. The book won an award the following year. In 2013, Patrick Clervoy explored the dark forces that, regardless of the degree of civilization, turn every human being into a potential perpetrator. Drawing from the works of Solomon Asch, Stanley Milgram, and Philip Zimbardo, Clervoy demonstrated the unconscious mechanisms of collective violence, from the Saint Bartholomew's Day Massacre to Abu Ghraib prison, from the Armenian genocide to the Vietnam War, and from the shaving of women during Liberation to ethnic cleansing in the former Yugoslavia, and from bullfighting to hazing. This work won an award in 2014.
In 2018, he published a study on the phenomena at work in healing, particularly the underutilized dimension of vital force as described by Charles Lasègue in the 19th century, which was foundational to the vitalist movement in medicine.
