With the participation of nearly 300 students of 15 different nationalities, the challenge on generative models of financial markets allowed participants to confront their artificial intelligence models with real data. It was organised in the framework of the "Stress Test" Chair, headed by Emmanuel Gobet.
Organised by Julie Diani on November 30th, the theme of this year's annual symposium of the "Design and modelling of innovative materials" Chair was adhesion. It brought together researchers from different fields in order to approach this theme from several angles.
The 12th European Symposium on Cubesats took place from 24 to 26 of November at the École Polytechnique. The specialists' presentations were complemented by student presentations from the École polytechnique and other universities.
On November 10, the Laboratoire d'informatique de l'X and the Centre interdisciplinaire Hi! PARIS organised a conference on meta-research with John Ioannidis, Professor at Stanford University. Following this conference, discover three questions to this pioneer of "research on research".
The annual workshop on cancer research and modelling, organised as part of the sponsorship programme led by Alexis Gautreau, provides a forum for exchanges between Polytechnique students and experts from the academic and medical worlds. It presents the state of the art in cancer research.
To verify the accuracy of information without disclosing it, Sarah Bordage and Youssef El Housni discuss with the company iExec the interest of Zero Knowledge Proof for blockchains. These two young researchers are under the direction of Daniel Augot, who holds the "Blockchain & B2B Platforms" Chair with Julien Prat.
Organised by doctoral students from the École polytechnique, the first French edition of the Congress of Young Researchers in Applied Mathematics took place from 27 to 29 October and brought together nearly 120 participants and several renowned speakers.
A national initiative led by the CNRS, the "High Energy in Additive Manufacturing" scientific interest group has been created under the direction of Éric Charkaluk, a professor at X and an expert in additive manufacturing. Its aim is to increase the diffusion of the uses of additive manufacturing by removing the barriers faced by industry.
Mercedes Pelegrín García, a young researcher at the École Polytechnique's Computer Science Laboratory in the framework of the "Integrated Urban Mobility" Chair, has been awarded the Vicent Caselles Prize. The prize is granted by the BBVA Foundation and the Spanish Royal Society of Mathematics for her research into combinatorial optimisation.
Assistant professor and researcher at the Solid Mechanics Laboratory, Laurence Bodelot studies the influence of multiscale effects and of multiphysics couplings on the behavior of materials. On October 19, 2021, she was awarded the Jean Mandel Prize.
Claire Dessalles (X2013), a young researcher at l'X within the "Cardiovascular Cellular Engineering" Chair, has been awarded the "For Women in Science" Young Talents France prize, presented each year by the L'Oréal Foundation and UNESCO, as well as the "Young Scientists 2020" prize from a research group.
Two collective scientific projects will be presented at the 72nd edition of the International Astronautical Congress. These two projects, which have been carried out for the past three years by students from the École Polytechnique's Space Centre, focus on a miniature satellite and on the reuse of rocket boosters.
Easy to use in the laboratory, CRISPR/Cas9 is a tool for altering the DNA of cells at precise locations. Each year, the "Personalised reconstruction of the tumour process" sponsorship teaches its mechanisms through new application cases of the evolution of a healthy cell into a cancer cell.
Two groups of students presented their Collective Scientific Projects at the Artificial Intelligence Platform, a major conference in this field of research. These projects, carried out with the Chair of Science and Video Games, focused on dialogue generation and on the control of creature movement by neural networks.
To replicate in cells, the SARS-CoV-2 virus interacts with different proteins and nucleic acids (DNA or RNA). A research consortium involving researchers from the Laboratory of Optics and Biosciences has just identified a specific interaction that paves the way for new antiviral compounds.
