Axes Généraux

L'IDEX UCAJEDI s’articule autour de plusieurs structures, dont 5 «académies d’excellence » qui ont pour mission de créer et favoriser l’émergence de nouvelles dynamiques scientifiques transdisciplinaires fortes, capables de devenir des pôles de référence en matière de Recherche, Formation et Innovation.

Les 5 académies recouvrent en elles-mêmes des thématiques transdisciplinaires :

Académie A1 : « Réseaux, information et société numérique »
Académie A2 : «Systèmes complexes »
Académie A3 : «Espace, environnement, risque et résilience »
Académie A4 : « Complexité et diversité du vivant»
Académie A5 : «Homme, idées et milieux »

InterAcadémies

L’un des moyens d’UCAJEDI pour créer ces dynamiques scientifiques est de soutenir des projets associant Recherche, Formation et Innovation, qui émergent à partir d’une ou plusieurs Académies.

Suite à un Appel à manifestation d'intérêt en Mai 2016 de la gouvernance d'UCAJEDI, un Bilan des 98 projets reçus par l'Académie 4 a été rédigé.
Les 17 principaux mots clés les plus fréquemment utilisés dans ces projets représentant les axes de recherches prépondérants sont les suivants :

The goal of this series is to have Crossdisciplinary Seminars from people working in NICE - VILLEFRANCHE - SOPHIA area who are interested in Next Generation Sequencing Approaches.


The first four editions were exclusively centered on Methods, Protocols, Analyses and Applications. The series are now opened to other Bio-Informatic Approaches. 
Presentations are given every 3 months by PhD students, Postdocs, Engineers and Researchers .

The venue rotates between different institutes and visioconference.

We hope that you will be interested in attending and contributing !

ABOUT US

Unraveling the mysteries of obesity, that’s the mission Adipo-Cible is pursuing.

Since November 2023, the consortium has officially brought together 21 fundamental and clinical research teams and one start-up toward a common goal: to understand why the adipose tissue dysfunctions in individuals with obesity and to develop personalized treatment for the disease.

The aim of ADIPOCIBLE is to be an international actor focusing on the adipose tissue dysfunction especially on the inflammation and fibrosis development

1- Obesity, a complex chronic disease

With more than one billion people suffering from obesity worldwide, it has become the most common chronic disease. The prevalence of obesity has continued its steep rise in the last decades, globally doubling among adults since 1990, and quadrupling among teenagers.

The World Health Organization defines obesity as a multifactorial, hence complex chronic disease as it involves an excessive deposition of adipose tissue that may harm the health. Indeed, people suffering from obesity are at risk of developing numerous pathologies such as cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, and certain types of cancer, which not only contribute to the world morbidity and mortality, but also impose a substantial economic burden.

Although therapeutic strategies have recently advanced, managing obesity remains complex and often ineffective due to the multifaceted nature of the disease. Notably, long-term results from dietary and physical activity modifications are modest. Therefore, it is urgent to identify the physiological factors underlying this disease at the genetic, cellular, and molecular levels to stem the rising number of cases.

2-  Stronger together

The Adipo-Cible research group aims to deepen the understanding of obesity through a multidisciplinary approach. Adipo-Cible unites researchers from diverse fields, including biology, chemistry, and mathematics, to establish a continuum of fundamental, translational, and clinical research around three main objectives:

- To unravel the mechanisms involved in adipose tissue dysfunction.
- To identify biomarkers of weight regain after metabolic and bariatric surgery and develop personalized treatments using predictive algorithms.
- To develop personalized nutritional and exercise programs, as well as surgical and endoscopic interventions, utilizing artificial intelligence to enhance and sustain weight loss efficacy.
