Dr. Ruchonnet-Métrailler began her medical journey at the University of Geneva, where her curiosity for fundamental mechanisms of disease led her to pursue an MD, PhD. Her doctoral work focused on the impact of oxidative stress on the lungs, laying the foundation for a career at the crossroads of clinical care and scientific discovery. Drawn by a commitment to children’s health, she went on to specialize in general pediatrics and later in pediatric pulmonology, refining her expertise at internationally renowned centers, including Necker–Enfants Malades Hospital in Paris.
Throughout her career, Dr. Ruchonnet-Métrailler has sought to bridge the gap between bedside and bench. Her translational research explores congenital thoracic and pulmonary anomalies, with the aim of improving early diagnosis and management. More recently, she has turned her attention to the integration of artificial intelligence into clinical practice, investigating its potential to transform asthma care.
Since 2022, she has been leading the Division of Pediatric Pulmonology at Geneva University Hospitals, where she combines clinical leadership, mentorship, and research to advance the field and improve outcomes for children with respiratory diseases.
