Cerveau Gret Neurosciences

GRET Neurosciences

The research projects of the GRET "Neurosciences" aim to develop knowledge on brain functioning at micro and/or macroscopic scales in the field of neurodegenerative diseases and cognitive pathologies based on the multidisciplinary origin (neurobiologists, neurogeneticists, neurophysiologists, psychologists) of its different members. This multi-scale vision of brain functioning is also deployed in the form of teaching within the EPHE. On the other hand, the Transdisciplinary Institute for the Study of Ageing (ITEV) of the EPHE is backed by this GRET.

Main areas of research

  • Cellular and molecular neuroscience

Analysis of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying human neurodegenerative diseases as well as their animal (Drosophila, Zebrafish, mouse lemur, mouse and rat) and cellular (Organoids, Human Biopsy) models, with the aim of identifying targets of therapeutic or preventive interest.          
Christelle Lasbleiz, Marie-Christine Lebart, Anne Marcilhac, Nadine Mestre-Frances, Mireille Rossel, Giovanni Stevanin, Françoise Trousse

  • Neuroimaging and Human Cognition

Description of brain networks associated with cognitive deficits in neurological and neuropsychiatric diseases and identification of early markers.        
Gwenaëlle Catheline, Sandra Chanraud, Mickaël Laisney

  • Clinical Neuroscience

Study of the semiological profiles of human pathologies from a whole life perspective and based on a multidisciplinary approach, from physiology to the human and social sciences. We combine a mechanistic and clinical approach in order to open up therapeutic proposals. 
Bérengère Guillery-Girard, Armelle Viard, Francis Eustache

  • Neurodevelopment of the newborn

Establishment of motor and sensory skills and eating behavior.       
Michèle Chabert, Joëlle Provasi, François Jouen
