From 1965 to 2000, Dravet specialized in epilepsy at the Centre Saint Paul in Marseille, among others with Henri Gastaut, Joseph Roger, and René Soulayrol (pediatric psychiatry). She was the resident doctor and actually lived on the premises until her retirement in 2000. Dravet had the opportunity, accompany and observe inpatients for many years, which resulted in some of her major contributions to epileptology.
