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 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.
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.
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.
NeuroSpin researchers map chimpanzee brain structural connectivity for the first time using diffusion MRI data. New image processing enabled them to create two atlases of deep and superficial white matter connectivity. A step towards a better understanding of the evolution of the hominid brain.
In a study published in Nature Communications, researchers from UNICOG and BAOBAB use high-field functional MRI to reveal the brain areas where the representations of quantities generated by a mental arithmetic operation are encoded.
In an article published in Nature Communications, researchers from the I2BC show that applying a fragmentation strategy to the protein partners of assemblies depending on intrinsically disordered regions very significantly improves AlphaFold2's prediction capacity.
Researchers at SIMoS (DMTS) describe the synthesis, engineering and evaluation of the properties of the B subunit of bacterial Shiga toxin (STxB), administered mucosally, as a vaccine tool. Their results confirm the value of using a synthetic STxB in an anti-tumor and anti-infectious vaccination strategy.
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.
Le projet EXPERIENCE cherche à utiliser la réalité virtuelle pour améliorer la vie quotidienne en permettant de nouvelles formes d’interaction sociale et d’expression personnelle.
CEA is a French government-funded technological research organisation in four main areas: low-carbon energies, defense and security, information technologies and health technologies. A prominent player in the European Research Area, it is involved in setting up collaborative projects with many partners around the world.
