- Biography
-
Idriss Jamil Aberkane is a French public speaker and essayist. Known for his writings and lectures on personal development, he published a particularly successful essay in 2016, titled Free up your mind!. However, he was the subject of criticism as he was accused of artificially inflating his resume and of using his three doctoral diplomas (Ph.Ds) to talk about sciences that are not in his areas of expertise. The scientific accuracy of some of his statements and publications was questioned by other researchers. His support for Didier Raoult, the famous French epidemiologist, and his questioning of the reliability of COVID-19 vaccines, in particular Pfizer's, has caused him to be classified as an anti-vax conspiracist.
