Antonio Simeone
During embryonic development, the brain follows a development plan governed by the same genes as those of the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster. This major discovery, among others, earned Antonio Simeone a prize from the Fondation...
Jamel Chelly
What are the genetic origins of intellectual disability? This complex and understudied question is central to Jamel Chelly’s research. Step by step, he is finding answers that could help people with certain neurodevelopmental...
Marc Parmentier
Marc Parmentier is a scientist who likes to solve riddles involving proteins. Using a method that he devised himself, he has managed to identify the function of certain key receptors previously considered a mystery. His research...
Paolo Sassone-Corsi
Paolo Sassone-Corsi set himself the mission to understand the effects of the Earth’s rotation, and thus the alternation between day and night, on living organisms. Through his research, he discovered that every cell beats to the...
Elisa Gomez Perdiguero
Events occurring during embryonic development can have consequences into adulthood. This is the case for the hematopoiesis, the production of blood and immune cells. Elisa Gomez Perdiguero aims to explore the link between...
Anja Böckmann
In order to better prevent and control emerging infectious diseases, Anja Böckmann and her team will be drawing on their expertise in nuclear magnetic resonance. This technique will enable them to decipher changes in the structure...
Maxime Gauberti
Most diseases cause subtle disturbances to the immune system. Current medical imaging methods lack sensitivity and thus struggle to detect them. To overcome this difficulty, Maxime Gauberti intends to develop a new family of...
Gianni Liti
Micro-organisms evolve in complex communities. These communities are connected by a dense network of interactions that underpin all the planet's ecosystems. Gianni Liti intends to produce an overview of these interactions. To do...
Stéphane Bugeon
The brain continually adjusts its responses to internal and external stimuli. In this context, Stéphane Bugeon is decoding how particular neurons, the inhibitory interneurons, adapt their activity according to the state of the...
Meryem Baghdadi
The activity of stem cells, which can renew themselves and transform into different cell types, depends very much on the immediate environment surrounding them, known as the niche. Meryem Baghdadi is particularly interested in the...
