COVID-19 Related olfactory disorders: 96% Recovery at 1 year

COVID-19 Related olfactory disorders: 96% Recovery at 1 year

In an article published in the medical journal JAMA Network Open, the ENT team of the University Hospitals of Strasbourg (Dr. Marion Renaud), with the support of the IHU Strasbourg, is the first to describe the one-year prognosis of post-COVID-19–related anosmia. Their results are reassuring!  A large majority (85%) of patients regained a fairly normal sense of smell within the first 6 months and 96% of patients had completely recovered their sense of smell within a year!

ENSIST: A new collaboration between InSimo and IHU Strasbourg, supported by the Region Grand Est

In partnership with the IHU Strasbourg, InSimo has embarked on the development of simulation modules dedicated to learning new surgical techniques using endoscopy approach with the launching of the ENSIST project supported by the Grand Est Region. The simulation modules will be carried through with the IHU Strasbourg, allowing ENSIST to lay a solid foundation for collaboration with a view to building a close and long-lasting partnership. Through this project, InSimo will benefit from the input of medical experts from the institute who will support its development from defining training needs to the implementation of training, and will validate the pedagogical value of the simulator.

The development of the two simulation modules will be supervised by Prof. Lee Swanström, Director of Innovation (IHU Strasbourg) and Prof. Silvana Perretta, Director of Education (IHU Strasbourg). Therefore, through this partnership, InSimo will be able to count on the support of the institute’s resources for the management of preclinical and clinical research with a study that will be conducted to validate patient-specific simulation of stomach deformation.

In 2020, the ENSIST project won the R&D&I scheme set up to support collaborative R&D and innovation projects.
This project has the support of the Grand Est Region, BioValleyFrance and BPI France providing significant support for a project estimated at over a million euros.
