To carry out their activities, Research Teams of the Frédéric Joliot Institute for Life Sciences have developed high-profile technological platforms in many areas : biomedical imaging, structural biology, metabolomics, High-Throughput screening, level 3 microbiological safety laboratory...
All the news of the Institute of life sciences Frédéric Joliot
A team from BioMaps (SHFJ), in partnership with the Gustave Roussy Institute, has used immunoPET imaging to assess the influence of tissue distribution on the efficacy of cancer immunotherapy, administered intra-tumor and intravenously in mice. Intratumoral administration is more effective and reduces overall exposure of organs at risk
The CEA is revealing a series of in vivo human brain images acquired with the Iseult MRI machine and its unmatched 11.7 teslas magnetic field strength. This success is the fruit of more than 20 years of R&D as part of the Iseult project, with one pillar goal being to design and build the world’s most powerful MRI machine. Its ambition is to study healthy and diseased human brains with an unprecedented resolution, allowing us to discover new details relating to the brain’s anatomy, connections, and activity.
A NeuroSpin team has built a predictive model for the onset of psychosis using a combination of supervised learning analyses and a model of neuroanatomical age, based on neuroimaging data from healthy subjects and those at risk of psychotic transition.
Teams from SCBM and SIMoS (DMTS) have developed nano-micelles for the vectorization of an active principle which regulates cholesterol metabolism towards atherosclerotic lesions.
Researchers at the LIAA (SPI/DMTS) have shown that pre- and perinatal exposure of mice to titanium dioxide increases the risk of developing a food allergy, particularly in males.
A team from NeuroSpin has recently published 3 papers that address the question of how we perceive time from a cognitive neuroscience perspective, using real-life temporal experiments, laboratory experiments and MEG brainwave measurements indicative of the passage of time, and that shed light on how the brain constructs our experience of lived time.
A collaborative study between SPI and a team from Hôpital Louis Mourier demonstrates the contribution of liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry to the day-to-day analytical needs of a clinical laboratory. Application to the rapid quantification of biomarkers in acute hepatic porphyrias.
Researchers at NeuroSpin have recently published 3 articles in Magnetic Resonance in Medicine on their technological and methodological developments that will help meet the challenges of ultra-high field MRI for tomorrow's medical brain imaging.
