Aperçu du projet

The human brain’s development relies on precisely coordinated genetic programs that ensure proper wiring and function. When these processes go awry, neurodevelopmental disorders, including severe epileptic encephalopathies, can arise. Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome (LGS) is a rare and severe childhood epilepsy that is often resistant to current treatments, suggesting the involvement of…

Aperçu du projet

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a complex condition affecting communication, social interactions, and behavior in approximately 1–2% of people worldwide. While some cases of ASD can be linked to specific genetic changes, most remain unexplained, leaving families and clinicians without clear answers. Recent studies suggest that our current understanding of…

Aperçu du projet

In Canada, over 1 million people have been diagnosed with bipolar disorder (BD) in their lifetime. BD is characterized by recurrent episodes of depression and (hypo)mania. Many people do not improve when they receive a recommended treatment, leading to treatment resistance. Psilocybin has been identified as a potential option to…

Aperçu du projet

The central nervous system controls numerous processes, including appetite and body weight regulation. Given the alarming rise in global obesity, understanding how the CNS controls appetite is crucial. Among the cell types involved, neurons expressing the gene "Pro-opiomelanocortin" (POMC) are particularly important. Loss of POMC neurons or the POMC gene…

Aperçu du projet

Glioblastoma is the most common primary malignant brain tumor in the adult population with a very poor prognostic. The combination of surgery, chemotherapy and radiotherapy are used as treatment. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is used to delineate the disease before surgery and to monitor patients after surgery. Two of the…
