Françoise Lazarini-Serandour
Perception & Action
My current interests center on (1) the effects of infection and inflammation on olfaction, (2) the role of nasal dysbiosis in Parkinson disease, and (3) the role of adult neurogenesis in olfaction. […]

Gabriel Lepousez
Perception & Action
Gabriel Lepousez is a neuroscientist whose research focuses on brain plasticity and circuit mechanisms underlying sensory perception and memory. He studied molecular biology at Ecole Normale Supérieure de Lyon, received his doctorate in Neuroscience […]

Kurt Sailor
Perception & Action

Mariana Alonso
Emotional circuits
My main goal is to understand how experience and sensory perception shape brain circuits to trigger behaviour. To tackle these questions, I implement different technical tools including a combination of behavioral analysis, viral vector […]

Antoine Nissant
Perception & Action
My primary research focus is on olfactory perception, with a particular emphasis on how past experiences and an individual’s physiological or pathological state modulate sensory circuits to shape their perception of the world. In […]

Michel Cohen-Tannoudji
Early Mammalian Development & Stem Cell Biology
The emergence of discrete cell identities from undifferentiated precursor cells is a central process in development and tissue homeostasis and repair, that when defective is at the basis of many human conditions including cancer […]

Aziz El Amraoui
Progressive Sensory Disorders, PathoPhysiology and Therapy
After a PhD in Neuroscience from the University of Lyon-I in 1995, Dr Aziz El-Amraoui joined the Institut Pasteur (Paris) where resorting to dozen identified deafness genes as entry points has enabled him to […]

Nathalie Sauvonnet
Biomaterials and Microfluidics
Tissue and Cell Homeostasis Eukaryotic cells contain extensive internal membranes defining many compartments having each specific functions. However these organelles are constantly moving and reshaping, still retaining their identity. The maintenance of cell compartmentalization […]

Timothée Bruel
Antiviral Activities of Antibodies
Since the beginning of my career, my goal has been to understand the mechanisms of effector immune responses to viruses and the related viral countermeasures. During my thesis, I studied the origin of type […]
François Schweisguth
Dynamics of Developmental Decisions in Drosophila
Francois Schweisguth studied at the Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris (1983-88) and obtained a PhD in Developmental Biology in 1990 under the supervision of Jean-Antoine Lepesant (IJM, Paris) and Alain Vincent (CBD, Toulouse). He […]
