About Cécile Badoual

Cécile is an anatomic cytopathologist at the Georges Pompidou Hospital and a teacher at the Paris Descartes Faculty of Medicine in France. Spearheading the fight against human papillomavirus (HPV), Cécile was instrumental in establishing France’s first multidisciplinary medical consultation for patients affected by HPV-related cancer. She was nominated for the Power List due to the worldwide impact of her research on the immune microenvironment of head and neck cancers associated with HPV. “As pathologists, we must never forget our essential role in patient management,” says Cécile. “We are part of a care team and must be innovative with multidisciplinary approaches.”
