Place Croix du Sud, auditorium SUD 11

Spinal deformities are one of the most mechanically disabling pathology for the human body. Resolving spinal deformities using surgery is difficult, sensitive and frequently leads to the necessity to perform corrective surgeries. The modeling methodologies presented in this talk aim at filling a crucial void by empowering surgeons to optimize the efficacy of surgery planning while minimizing the likelihood of revision surgeries.

The search for sustainable solutions for the production and transport of energy is essential to ensure Europe's leadership in these sectors. Micrometric metal particles offer a promising source of sustainable energy. Upon ignition, they generate a significant amount of energy without emitting carbon dioxide. Additionally, this process yields metal oxides that can be regenerated using wind or solar energy.
