The Challenge

Freeing researchers' time for what matters

Institut Curie, a leading oncology research center, needed to allow its researchers to refocus on their core mission: the fight against cancer.

Researchers consumed by admin work

Hours lost synthesizing, organizing documents, and searching for publications. Time that should be spent on fundamental and clinical research.

Fragmented information access

Scientific publications, protocols, and internal data scattered across multiple systems. Researchers need cross-referencing capabilities to work efficiently.

The Solution

A Copilot agent serving cancer research

Designed in partnership with Microsoft and Witivio, the Copilot agent integrates into Institut Curie's Microsoft 365 environment to automate low-value tasks and accelerate research.

Information retrieval

Instantly locates relevant publications for informed and accelerated decision-making.

Visual element extraction

Automatically extracts and organizes graphs, tables, and figures from research documents.

Content production

Transforms complex data into clear notes, summaries, and structured emails ready for use.

Team connections

Contextual analysis connects the right team members at the right time for optimal collaboration.

Department-specific adaptation

Adapts to each team's specialties and challenges for relevant, personalized responses.
