Welcome to the “news” section of our website, where you'll find all the latest publications on our advances in research (Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Charcot's disease, etc.), our upcoming events, etc.
MSCopilot, a new multiple sclerosis self-assessment digital solution developed by AdScientiam a startup incubated at iPEPS, has been clinically validated in a clinical trial involving several French hospitals. The results are published in the...
A high tumour mutational burden (hypermutation) is observed in some gliomas 1, 2, 3, 4, 5; however, the mechanisms by which hypermutation develops and whether it predicts the response to immunotherapy are poorly understood.
Estimating the value of alternative options is a key process in decision-making. Human functional magnetic resonance imaging and monkey electrophysiology studies have identified brain regions, such as the ventromedial prefrontal cortex (vmPFC) and...
Where does our individuality come from? What makes us unique in our behavior? Could it all be in our brain? Prof. Bassem Hassan* and his team discovered a stochastic wiring mechanism of circuits in the fly’s brain at the origin of individual behavior...
Cyril Atkinson-Clément (Institut du Cerveau - ICM) and Yulia Worbe (Sorbonne Université/APHP) in the team “normal and abnormal motor control: movement disorders and experimental therapeutics” at paris brain institute, show that the control of motor...
Because the quality of scientific discoveries depends very strongly on the match between research projects and the evolution of technology, Paris Brain Institute offers you, in this new series of articles, to discover the work carried out by its core...
The team led by Prof. Stéphane CHARPIER (Sorbonne Université) at the Brain and Spine Institute is describing live for the first time the neuronal changes during reoxygenation of the brain in anoxia in an experimental in vivo model.
A study conducted at Institut du Cerveau - ICM by Mauricio dos-Santos-Pereira and Patrick Michel together with a partner team in Brazil, identifies a key mechanism by which cannabidiol (CBD), a non-psychoactive component of cannabis, exerts anti...
Pain is a very subjective sensation. The same condition could be experienced as excruciatingly painful by some people, while others will consider it as barely painful. A study conducted by Leonie Koban, researcher in the team of Philippe Fossati and...
A study conducted by Alberto BACCI’s (CNRS) team at the Institut du Cerveau - ICM showed that a specific type of inhibitory neuron of the cerebral cortex makes a large number of synapses with themselves (autapses). Autaptic self-inhibition is much...
Early biomarkers are needed to identify individuals at high risk of preclinical Alzheimer's disease and to better understand the pathophysiological processes of disease progression. Preclinical Alzheimer's disease EEG changes would be non-invasive...
A team from the department of neurology of the Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital-APHP and the Institut du Cerveau, led by Prof Emmanuel FLAMAND-ROZE and Dr Aurélie MENERET, showed the positive effect of coffee in dyskinesia caused by a mutation of ADCY5...
