The PFNT Facility is a coherent set of exploration tools in neurobiology allowing research at the molecular, cellular and integrated levels.
Congratulation to Vika post doc in team 9 (Cytoskeleton and NeuroPhysiopathology) for this great piece of work on Zinc Modulation of 3 families of Neuronal Calcium Sensor Proteins recently published in Biomolecules.
After being postponed in 2021, the inauguration of the Nikon Center of Excellence for Neuro-Nanoimaging at Aix-Marseille Université (see more details on the Center of Excellence below) will take place on September 22, 2022 starting at 9:00 am on the Timone campus (Grisoli amphitheater), in the presence of the President of AMU Mr. Eric Berton and the Director of Nikon Europe Mr. Takaharu Sasaoka. We are pleased to invite you to this event which will combine an international scientific symposium, followed by an inauguration ceremony and the possibility to visit the platform (see attached program).
Team 6 was happy to participate in NeuroMarseille's day, which took place on June 28, 2022.
Many members of the INP attended this scientific and friendly day for the neuroscience community.
Our M1 student, Marine Dos Santos, also presented her one-month work in our team, during the afternoon poster session.
We thank NeuroMarseille for this great day !
INP members from team 8 (GlioME: Gliomagenesis and MicroEnvironment) and team 9 (Cytoskeleton and Neurophysiopathology) attended the Canceropole PACA annual seminar which took place in Saint-Raphaël palais des congrés on July 5th and 6th 2022.
On the 20-22 nd June, the first Molecular Scale Biophysics Research Infrastructure (MOSBRI) conference was held in Paris. Dahbia Yatoui from team 9 and Géraldine Ferracci from PINT went to this event, where Dahbia had the opportunity to present her work "Role of zinc-binding sites in Tau aggregation" on a poster.
The GlioME team was represented on 8 and 9 June 2022 at the Sunrise (Solid tumor cancer stem cell network) meeting at the Curie Institute in Paris.
Aurélie Soubéran presented a poster on the role of the ML-IAP protein in glioblastoma growth and Aurélie Tchoghandjian presented the team's work on "Smac mimetic as pan-cellular therapy in glioblastoma".
After two years of being postponed, INP Day #2 finally took place on Friday, June 3rd.
A huge congrats and thank you to the organizing team (including our engineer Louise) for persevering and making this day a success!
Team 6 took the opportunity of this cheerful day to take a picture, with Marine our intern who is a M1 student.
Journée Interdisciplinarité(s) organisée par AMU.
On vous attend nombreux le 18 juin au Cube (Faculté des Lettres à Aix en Provence) pour assister à la manifestation Scientifica pour une séance de rattrapage pour une installation immersive "Porteur de lumière".

Le projet « Validation de nouveaux agents ciblant les microtubules et pouvant traverser la barrière hémato-encéphalique pour le traitement du glioblastome » déposé à l’appel « Repositionnement de molécules en prématuration » du Canceropôle Provence Alpes Côte d’Azur par Philipp Tsvetkov (plateforme PINT) a été retenu par le Comité Scientifique du Canceropole PACA pour être financé à hauteur de 30 000 euros. Sont impliquées dans ce projet les équipes 9 et 8 et leurs plateformes associées respectives
Part of Team 8 was present at the ICI (Institute of Cancer and Immunology) congress on April 6.
On this occasion, Aurélie Tchoghandjian presented the PETRA network and Sokhna Babou (Master 2 student) and Emmanuel Snacel-Fazy (PhD student) discussed their results with the scientific community during the poster session.
Team 8 has recently obtained a CMA-CGM funding in the framework of the call for projects "Programme d'équipement et de recherche clinique" 2022
The project title is "Program of Precision RAdioTherapy to Improve patient Cancer treatment" and aims to participate in the purchase of a small animal irradiator "SARRP" that will complement the pre-clinical offerings of the PETRA network.
Team 9 represented by José Luis and team 8 represented by Aurélie Tchoghandjian have obtained Amidex Blanc funding for the project: "Bioinspired cytotoxic copper complexes: deciphering their mechanism of action in cancer cells to develop efficient therapeutic agents (CytoCu4Cancer)".
This project is led by a chemist, Olga Iranzo of the Institute of Molecular Sciences of Marseille (iSm2).
Depuis lundi 3 Avril, l'INP participe à une opération inter-laboratoires de quantification de déchets recyclables professionnels (et ménagers) sur le campus Timone.
Pour cela, chaque aile a été aménagée avec des points de collecte et de tri sélectif. Chaque semaine, les différentes catégories seront pesées puis emmenées au recyclage pour valorisation.
Comme chaque année les membres de l'INP participent à la semaine du cerveau. Parmi les actions de cette année on peut citer l'intervention de Cynthia et Charbel deux doctorants de l'équipe 9 qui sont allés rendre visite à l'école primaire du Pharo Catalans
