The Lille-based teams under Professors François Pattou (Lille University, Lille University Hospital, INSERM and the Institut Pasteur in Lille) and Philippe Preux (Lille University and INRIA) have developed a digital medical device which can predict the expected weight loss of an individual patient in the 5 years following their bariatric surgery. Based on 7 variables as well as artificial intelligence, it was developed from a cohort of 1,500 patients operated on and monitored for more than 15 years at Lille University Hospital. The effectiveness of the model was then validated among more than 10,000 patients monitored in France (Montpellier, Lyon, Valenciennes and Boulogne) and other countries (the Netherlands, Finland, Sweden, Switzerland, Singapore, Mexico and Brazil), as part of the European IMI Sophia project. The application is already online and available to healthcare teams and patients. The publication of these results in the prestigious Lancet Digital Health journal highlight ....

It contained samples of dust brought back from asteroid Ryugu, after a long journey by the Hayabusa2 spacecraft. These tiny grains of material should speak volumes about the earliest moments of the Solar System. “Returning these samples was the mission’s main goal,” explains Patrick Michel, senior researcher at the Joseph-Louis Lagrange Laboratory1 and a member of the Hayabusa22 scientific team, as well as of the Hera,3 MMX4 and OSIRIS-REx5 missions. “Ryugu is a carbonaceous asteroid, a category so primitive that its composition isn’t thought to have changed since the formation of the Solar System. It should therefore contain all the ingredients needed to make planets. We also hope to discover the role of asteroids in the emergence of life on Earth and find out whether the organic matter presen ....
