Amid a global climate crisis, more frequent and intense heat waves alter people's quality of life and increase morbidity and mortality. Cities are particularly vulnerable to heat because they concentrate people, including many in situations of individual, social and/or environmental fragility, and because the urban fabric, structure, cover and metabolism alter the thermal environment, which generally exacerbates heat stress. Creating cities that sustainably and effectively address the challenge of overheating is thus of utmost importance.

Simulateur haptique pour l'apprentissage de la spasticité

Spasticity is a motor disorder characterized by muscular hyperactivity caused by impaired nerve conduction. Diagnosis of this pathology relies on the assessment of the degree of resistance of the limb following a passive movement performed by the practitioner, and is used to determine the treatment to be followed. However, this assessment remains subjective and requires practical experience. Experience can only be gained by training on real patients.
