The announcement was made by Matignon, via a statement, Monday, July 30. The president of Inserm Yves Lévy, husband of Agnès Buzyn, withdrew on Monday his candidacy for a new mandate at the head of this public body of medical research. The possible renewal at Inserm of the Minister of Health's husband embarrbaded the government somewhat, who feared a controversy over a potential conflict of interest. " The government takes note " of this decision " to withdraw his candidacy for a renewal to the presidency of Inserm ," says Matignon in his statement relayed by Le Point
Risk of conflict of interest
As the weekly reports, the National Institute of Health and Medical Research indicated that Yves Lévy had " addressed today to all Inserm staff a message explaining his decision ", without revealing its content. For the time being, Agnès Buzin's husband is going to take an acting position before knowing the name of his successor. " The process of recruiting the CEO of Inserm will be revived in the coming weeks ," said Matignon. Candidates have already been heard on 21 June in camera by an ad hoc committee.
