IHU RespirERA Institute

Start:   June 2024

End:   2034

Founders of the institute :   Inria, Inserm, CHU Nice, Université Côte d’Azur

The RespirERA institute has been funded following the third wave of the French national « Institut Hospitalo-Universitaire » (IHU) call for proposals. The institute aims to improve the care in the field of respiratory diseases. The objectives are to reduce the incidence of lung diseases linked to pollution and age and the impact of the exposome (all exposures to environmental factors), extend the life expectancy of patients, delay dependency and progression to respiratory failure and avoid hospitalizations.

I am coordinating a workpackage in this new institute focusing on AI solutions for lung cancer screening, and biomarker extraction from heterogenous data for the diagnosis of respiratory diseases.
