Aperçu du projet

Most people have experienced the recollection of a vivid memory after encountering a trigger, such as a familiar place, object, or smell. In neuroscience, this process is called 'pattern completion'. For years people have thought that a particular part of the brain, called the ‘trisynaptic circuit’ of the hippocampus, might…

Aperçu du projet

The hippocampus is a brain region critical for learning, memory, spatial navigation and emotion. The main output of the hippocampus is termed the “subiculum”, and is responsible delivering hippocampal output to a host of other brain regions. As such, the subiculum is powerfully situated to brain activity in healthy conditions,…

Aperçu du projet

Infections with Zika virus (ZIKV) constitute a major global public health concern worldwide. Indeed, the recent ZIKV outbreak in the Americas revealed that infection of pregnant women can lead to congenital transmission, infection within the fetal developing brain and eventually to microcephaly in the infant. Most importantly, no antiviral therapies…

Aperçu du projet

The human brain is a complex organ that presents many challenges for neuroscientists. For instance, tissue availability represents a major problem given that this organ does not regenerates, making it next to impossible to obtain live tissue from patients that would allow to study how cells in the brain change…
