BariatricAI: Intelligent Nutrition and Recovery Support for Bariatric Surgery Patients

Obesity is one of the biggest health challenges of our time affecting over a billion people worldwide. Bariatric surgery is often the best option for patients with severe obesity, but many struggle to stick to the nutrition and lifestyle changes needed for long-term success.

That’s where BariatricAI comes in. We’re creating an intelligent support system—a smart nutrition chatbot, symptom tracker, and culturally relevant tools—that help patients recover, stay healthy, and thrive after surgery.

And here’s the best part: no nutrition background is required. Whether you’re in computer science, engineering, psychology, marketing, medicine, or nutrition, there’s a role for you on our team.

Join our VIP+ project to gain hands-on research experience, work with industry partners like Dima Healthcare, build your portfolio, and make a real impact on people’s lives—right here in Lebanon, with the potential to scale worldwide.
