Adipo cible

The Winter School Adipo-Cible aims to disseminate the latest knowledge on obesity and related metabolic diseases, and to facilitate crucial educational exchanges that enable scientific and medical participants to understand the disease and its associated pathologies from fundamental principles to clinical patient management. It also explores the potential of artificial intelligence to enhance personalized patient care. This Winter School complements the "Pathophysiology and Emerging Therapeutic Approaches (PATH)" track of the Master's program in Life Sciences and Neuroscience. The multidisciplinary nature of our consortium, unique in France, enables us to offer participants high-level training to grasp the importance of collaborative and multidisciplinary research in understanding the mechanisms and management of obesity and associated diseases. This Winter School is organized and supported by Adipo-Cible.
