6 Novembre – Stéphane Dieudonné (ENS, Paris) – A sequential strategy for multi photon actuation and recording of membrane voltage in awake animals
Technologies for recording and manipulating neuronal membrane potential in vivo in defined neuronal populations with high fidelity will be essential to understand how information is represented, processed, and propagated in the brain. Genetically encoded voltage indicators and optogenetic actuators are… Continue reading

November 5th – INC DAY 2020: The Embodied Brain
This year the INC DAY will focus on various aspects of the inter-relationship between brain and body: from nutrition and hormones to embodied cognition. Catherine Tallon-Baudry (Ecole Normale Supérieure, Paris) will give the keynote lecture on the topic Viscerally conscious,… Continue reading

October 16th – Philippe Faure (IBPS, Paris) – Exploratory behavior, individual trait and nicotine addiction: the role of dopamine
Consistent individual differences in behaviours represent an ubiquitous feature in animal populations. These behavioural differences among individuals define personality and have been linked to the susceptibility to addiction. Indeed, the susceptibility to develop drug addiction differs substantially between individuals and some traits that characterize an individual,… Continue reading

October 9th – Gregory Gauvain (Institut de la Vision, Paris) – Optogenetics for vision restoration: toward clinical trials
Using vector and genetic constructs most suitable for vision restoration in patients with retinopathies, we have demonstrated temporal resolution compatible with highly dynamic visual scenes and a visual acuity above legal blindness.

October 2nd – Bassem Hassan (ICM, Paris) – The neuroscience of why flies are people
The genome versus experience dichotomy has dominated understanding of behavioral individuality. By contrast, the role of nonheritable noise during brain development in behavioral variation is understudied. Using Drosophila melanogaster, we demonstrate a link between stochastic variation in brain wiring and… Continue reading

September 25th – Caroline Rouaux (Inserm U1118, University of Strasbourg, France) – Evaluation of the corticofugal hypothesis in ALS
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is the third most frequent neurodegenerative disease after Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases, and the most frequent disease of the adult motoneuron. Clinically and histopathologically, ALS is defined as the simultaneous degeneration of corticospinal neurons (CSN) in… Continue reading

February 7th – Ruben Portugues – Decision making and motor control in larval zebrafish
In order to succeed in a changing environment, animals need to take into account noisy and ambiguous stimuli and select appropriate behavior. Furthermore, animals need to modify their behavior when the outcome is unsuccessful. In this talk, I will present… Continue reading

January 24th – Naguib Mechawar – Early-life adversity and its long-term influence on cerebral oligodendrocytes and myelination
Early-life adversity can have devastating and lasting consequences on individuals, considerably increasing the lifetime risk of negative mental health outcomes such as depression and suicide. Yet, the neurobiological processes underlying this increase in vulnerability remain poorly understood. I will present… Continue reading
