Our lab is studying the molecular and cellular basis of human nervous system development in health and disease. We seek to decode the principles controlling the specification and organization of neural diversity and...

The life of an embryo starts as a ball of undifferentiated cells. Gradually, biochemical signals, in concert with mechanical cues, pattern the embryonic tissues from which organs emerge. Understanding the role of...
Barbara Bravi (LPENS)
The immune response of an organism when it is infected by a pathogen is based on the recognition of small portions of its proteins. This raises two questions: what protein portions are relevant to this process? And...
Ananyo Maitra (Laboratoire Jean Perrin)
Active matter theories generally augment descriptions of passive liquid crystals with nonequilibrium forces and currents, thereby addressing how activity affects these structures. In this talk, I will ask a less...
Silvia Grigolon (Laboratoire Jean Perrin)
Embryo morphogenesis relies on highly coordinated movements of different tissues as well as cell differentiation and patterning. However, remarkably little is known about how tissues coordinate their movements to...
Marc Van Der Hofstadt (Laboratoire Jean Perrin)
The microenvironment surrounding eukaryotic cells in complex organisms is constantly evolving. Its out-of-equilibrium behaviour is due to the perpetual production and degradation of its constituents by the enclosing...
Joseph d’Alessandro (Institut Jacques Monod
Cells move. They propel themselves using an internal machinery which endows them with the characteristics of active particles. At the same time, they interact dynamically with their environment and with neigbouring...
Charlie Duclut (Max Planck
In addition to generating forces and reacting to mechanical cues, cell assemblies and tissues are characterized by their capacity to actively pump fluid, thanks to active ion transport. By pumping fluid,...
Terence Strick (ENS)
DNA repair is typically a multi-step, multi-component process in which proteins detect a DNA lesion; confirm the presence of the lesion; excise the lesion; and replace the excised DNA with freshly-synthesized DNA. ...
