All the news of the Institute of life sciences Frédéric Joliot
A team at NeuroSpin, in collaboration with the University of Ülm (Germany), published a study in Nature Communications that suggests the existence of multisensory correlation detectors in the human brain.
NeuroSpin researchers propose a new version of their compressed MRI acquisition algorithm, SPARKLING, extended to 3D imaging. Their method reduces acquisition time by a factor of 20 for T2*-weighted scans without compromising image quality.
The ptairMS software, developed in the framework of a collaboration led by the CEA-Joliot, allows the processing and analysis of proton transfer mass spectrometry data, an ideal method for the real-time study of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) present in exhaled breath.
Researchers at the LIAA (SPI/DMTS) show that the initial route of sensitization to a food allergen (oral, respiratory, cutaneous) directly influences the nature of immune responses at multiple sites in the body.
Researchers from the SHFJ and the DMTS have developed optimized radioligands for immunoPET imaging. The objective is to better predict the effectiveness of anti-PD1/anti-PDL1 immunotherapy used to fight certain cancers.
Researchers from the SCBM describe a hydrogen isotope labeling process that is easy to implement and whose starting point is a "simple" mixture, in a solvent, of the product to be labeled with a pre-catalyst. Explanations of this process which finds applications in many fields including drug development or medical imaging.
A team from BioMaps (SHFJ), in collaboration with several hospital groups, shows that hybrid PET/MRI imaging significantly improves the detection of epileptogenic foci and, consequently, the outcome of surgical treatment of epilepsy.
In an exploratory study, a team from SPI used mass spectrometry to analyze the gut microbiota profile of Covid-19 patients and to search for signature markers of SARS-CoV-2 gut infection using functional metaproteomics. These markers could be used to follow the evolution of the disease.
A study led by NeuroSpin researchers proposes an optimized delineation of rare brain tumors, based on a combined approach of object detection and deep learning segmentation in tumor images, a key step in the characterization of cancers.
A collaboration between the SHFJ and the UMR-S 1144 (University of Paris) shows that the deleterious effect of the buprenorphine/benzodiazepine combination would result from the combined action of each drug on its target.
A team from the I2BC has just demonstrated, using transient absorption spectroscopy, that the repair of UV-induced damage in DNA by a repair enzyme (6-4) photolyase occurs in two successive photoreactions.
Researchers from the SCBM have participated in the optimization of a bio-inspired catalyst anode developed by teams from IRIG (CEA, Grenoble). In particular, they have contributed to the fine control of the catalyst surface concentration.
A NeuroSpin team (BAOBAB) has tested a signal denoising method dedicated to very high field (7T) functional MRI. It is based on the weighted combination of images from each reception channel of the radio frequency coil, a combination that optimizes the stability of the signal over time.
In a study conducted by a team from the Institut Curie, researchers from the CEA-Joliot (B3S/I2BC department) have modeled in silico protein-protein interactions and thus contributed to establish at the molecular level the mechanisms that coordinate the pairing and recombination of homologous chromosomes during meiosis.
In an article in the New York Times, Stanislas Dehaene (NeuroSpin director) and Mathias Sablé-Meyer (PhD student) discuss recent results obtained in collaboration with the Collège de France, the CNRS and the University of Paris 8 that show that humans have a universal capacity to understand abstract geometric concepts.
September 2021, the 11.7 Tesla MRI of the Iseult project, the most powerful in the world for human imaging, has just unveiled its first images.
The European Commission once more places its trust on Multiwave company and its partners, Aix-Marseille Université , CEA and Université Catholique de Louvain to revolutionize ultra-high field magnetic resonance imaging of the brain.
