1er Octobre 2021 – Alberto Bacci (ICM, Paris) – Connectivity and plasticity of neocortical basket cells
In the neocortex, perisomatic inhibition onto principal pyramidal neurons (PNs) determines the dynamic range of pyramidal neuron responses during sensory processing and drive several forms of network oscillations, believed to be the network correlate of several cognitive functions. The inhibitory… Continue reading

24 Septembre 2021 – Séverine Boillée (ICM, Paris) – Modifying macrophages at the periphery has the capacity to modify microglial reactivity and to extend ALS mouse survival
Microglia, the macrophage of the CNS and peripheral macrophages, combined, have been implicated in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), the most common adult-onset motor neuron disease, but without discriminating their respective roles. Since we have shown that microglial cells participated to… Continue reading

6 Novembre 2020 – 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

16 Octobre 2020 – 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

9 Octobre 2020 – 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.

2 Octobre 2020 – 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

25 Septembre 2020 – Caroline Rouaux (Inserm U1118, Université de 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

6 Mars 2020 – Peter Hagoort (MPI for Psycholinguistics, Radboud University, Nimègue) – The listening and speaking brain
The infrastructure of the human brain allows us to acquire a language without formal instruction in the first years of life. I will discuss the features that make our brain language-ready. Next to the neuro-architectural features I will discuss the… Continue reading

7 Février 2020 – 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
