By analyzing brain imaging data, researchers from InDEV (NeuroSpin / UMR NeuroDiderot) have identified recurrent abnormalities in subjects with fetal alcohol syndrome, the combination of which could have a particularly interesting diagnostic value for non-syndromic forms of fetal alcohol spectrum disorders.
Using UK Biobank imaging-genetics data, a collaborative study led by NeuroSpin found that variation in genomic regions, known as enhancers, could affect the morphology of cortical sulci and be associated with the evolution of locomotion in primates and bipedalism in our hominin ancestors.
The oxidative functionalization of alkenes, hydrocarbons widely used in the chemical industry, remains a challenge. A team from I2BC used an Oxygen Atom Transfer reaction to an alkene and succeeded in capturing the intermediate species of a bio-inspired photocatalyst produced during the reaction.
Timo van Kerkoerle, researcher at NeuroSpin, is one of the 408 winners of the prestigious ERC Starting Grant 2022 call of the European Research Council. Another European success for the Institute.
The QSM4SENIOR project, led by NeuroSpin and the company VENTIO, aims at developing an original early biomarker of aging by using data from the SENIOR study of NeuroSpin. QSM4SENIOR has just been funded by the EOSC-Life.
Deeptope, founded in February 2021 from a technology developed at the DMTS Laboratory of Cellular Immunology and Biotechnology (LICB), is a company of therapeutic antibody engineering that provides antibody optimization and characterization services to biotech or pharmaceutical firms with the goal of increasing the quality of antibodies in a very short timeframe.
