Perception & Action
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 […]

Heart Morphogenesis
Sigolène MEILHAC is a developmental biologist and INSERM Research Director, leading since 2015 the team of Heart Morphogenesis jointly affiliated to the Institut Pasteur and Institut Imagine. Trained at the Ecole Normale Supérieure, she […]
Riccardo Pellarin
Structural Bioinformatics
In the Cell, Proteins and Nucleic Acid assemble into larger structures, called macromolecular complexes. These complexes are specialized biological machineries that accomplish fundamental tasks that are at the basis of life. I employ computer modeling […]
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 […]

Biomaterials and Microfluidics
Intracellular traffic and cell compartmentalization 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 […]

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 […]
