AI-Based Gut-Brain Axis Digital Twins Passed

Wednesday May 24, 2023 15:05 - 15:10 G4

Lecturer: Stephane Meystre

Track: MIE: Sensors, signals and Imaging Informatics

More than 40% of the adult population suffers from functional gastrointestinal disorders, now considered disorders of the “gut-brain axis” (GBA) interactions, a very complex bidirectional neural, endocrine, immune, and humoral communication system modulated by the microbiota. To help discover, understand, and manage GBA disorders, the OnePlanet research center is developing digital twins focused on the GBA, combining novel sensors with artificial intelligence algorithms providing descriptive, diagnostic, predictive or prescriptive feed-back.
