LinkedIn unveiled its Top Voices list in November 2020. It featured the 25 most prominent contributors in 2020 in France on the largest professional network in the world and included Valérie Pécresse, Anne Hidalgo, Bruno Le Maire, Julia De Funès, Nicolas Dufourcq (CEO of BPI France), and Olivier Bogillot (President of Sanofi France). Prof. Claire Mounier-Vehier, MD, who cofounded Women’s Women’s Cardiovascular Healthcare Foundation with Thierry Drilhon, was one of them thanks to the many messages she shared about prevention and women’s health. “By working together and combining of the business world and the scientific world, we can give more prevention advice to save lives,” says Prof. Mounier-Vehier. “Prevention is essential and a task for each of us. We’re all prevention influencers. Anything we can do at our level is already meaningful. Sharing information, for example. Taking care of ourselves, especially for women who have a natural tendency to put their family before themselves. And doing better at taking female specificities into account in medical care and research by relying on a medical-social ecosystem.” https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/linkedin-top-voices-2020-france-sandrine-chauvin/?trackingId=wK0%2BhMWnmpHzxEf5SUilGA%3D%3D
