A few weeks ago, the Vaincre Alzheimer Foundation came to visit the Institute of NeuroPhysiopathology and made a short documentary on the team Neural Plasticity and Degeneration (Team 1), led by Santiago Rivera who was recently funded by the Foundation. It was an opportunity for him to thank Vaincre Alzheimer and the donors and talk about the importance of MT5-MMP, a protease that contributes to the pathophysiological mechanisms of Alzheimer’s disease and may become a potential new target. Please watch the short film below that will also take you into one of the P2 culture room with Laurence Louis, in the Stem Cell Center NeuroTimone (SCeNT) with Emmanuel Nivet, to the histology room and the Neuro-Celllular Imaging Service (NCIS) with Christine Manrique, and to the Platform Interactome Timone (PINT) with Géraldine Ferracci.
