Inria/École Polytechnique joint research team
Cécile Patte, 3rd-year PhD student in the team with Dominique Chapelle and Martin Genet, received the 2020 French Young Talent award of the programme "For Women in Science" L'Oréal - Unesco. This prize rewards her research work on pulmonary poromechanics modeling applied to pulmonary fibrosis.
Context & Objectives The COVID-19 infection manifests itself in its severe forms as acute alveolar-interstitial and vascular disease of varying severity, the long-term course of which is unknown. A development towards fibrosing pneumopathy could affect 10 to 30% of survivors of severe forms, which would make it a public health Continue Reading(Closed) Postdoc on Personalized modeling of lung poromechanics in COVID-19
Philippe Moireau is taking part in a collaborative effort to model and estimate the dynamics of COVID pandemic in France. First paper is already on medRXiV: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.04.21.20073536v2!
Martin Genet & Dominique Chapelle are part of a project (SILICOVILUNG) selected by ANR in the 4th wave of the COVID call, cf. https://anr.fr/fr/actualites-de-lanr/details/news/appel-anr-ra-covid-19-les-resultats-des-premieres-vagues-devaluation. The project is managed by Pierre-Yves Brillet from Hypoxia & Lung/Université Sorbonne-Paris-Nord and Avicenne AP-HP Hospital. It aims at better understanding the regional physiological mechanisms in Continue ReadingMartin Genet & Dominique Chapelle involved in ANR COVID grant
Martin Genet just published a paper in Clinical Biomechanics, introducing a new framework for controlling growth-induced residual stresses in the context of the kinematic growth approach (i.e., multiplicative split of deformation gradient), through an additional relaxation step.
Context & Objectives The lungs are the primary organs of the respiratory system in humans and many animals, responsible for molecular exchanges between external air and internal blood through mechanical ventilation. It has an extraordinary complex architecture, with the inherent fractal structure of the bronchial and blood vessel trees, as Continue Reading(Closed) PhD on Multi-Scale Modeling of Lung Poromechanics
Jean-Marc Allain just published a review paper on the role of ion channels in plant mechanosensing, with colleagues from Institute for Integrative Biology of the Cell (I2BC) (CEA/CNRS/Université Paris-Sud/Université Paris‐Saclay).

Jean-Marc Allain is co-chairing the upcoming workshop "Biomechanics from cells to tissues", which "aims to bring together engineers, physicists and life scientists working at the interface between mechanics, biology and medicine to exchange recent results and stimulate further interactions within the Paris-Saclay and broader Paris area.". Martin Genet will be Continue ReadingJean-Marc Allain co-chair, Martin Genet plenary speaker @ upcoming Parisian Biomechanics Workshop
Arthur Le Gall (MD) presented his PhD work (in collaboration with Radomir Chabiniok, Étienne Gayat, Fabrice Vallée & Dominique Chapelle) on biomechanical model-based augmented monitoring this morning at the SFAR congress, in front of 400+ doctors!
