Team 9 and PINT are glad to see Romain La Rocca's main PhD paper is finally out in the International Journal of Biological Macromolecules.

Du lundi 24 au vendredi 29 avril s'est tenue, toujours avec succès, la deuxième édition de la formation MedIM (Méthodes d'étude des Interactions Moléculaires) co-organisée par la Plateforme INteractome Timone (PINT) de l’INP, la plateforme de Biologie Structurale de l’AFMB et les plateformes de l’IMM, toutes trois labellisées "Plateformes Technologiques du site d'Aix-Marseille".

Emmanuel Snacel-Fazy, doctorant dans l'équipe Gliome et  François Devred co-directeur de la plateforme PINT ont présenté leurs travaux lors de l'assemblée générale de l'Association pour la Recherche sur les Tumeurs Cérébrales (ARTC Sud).

Nicola Allen - Associate Professor at the Molecular Neurobiology Laboratory of the Salk Institute for Biological Studies in La Jolla, USA - est l'invitée de Neuroschool ce mois-ci pour un séminaire sur son domaine de recherche: "Astrocyte regulation of neuronal synapses". Dr Allen viendra donner son séminaire le 13 mai 2022 à 14h30 à l'amphithéâtre du CERIMED, sur le campus de la Timone (vue aérienne).

Chiara Bastiancich, Post-doc in the GlioME team presented her ongoing GlioRET project at the European Symposium on Controlled Drug Delivery.
 

Her poster "Elucidating the tumor resection microenvironment of glioblastoma toward the development of fit-for-purpose local treatments" won over the cogress jury !

Emmanuel Snacel-Fazy, a 2nd year doctoral student in the GlioME team, won the best poster award at yesterday's "Conference Annuelle de L'institut Cancer et Immunologie (ICI)", Thursday 31 March 2022.

His work on the "Remodelling of the glioblastoma immune landscape by smac mimetic GDC-0152" has been appreciated and rewarded. Once again, congratulations!

Dr Romain Appay, pathologist at the Timone Hospital and PhD student in the GioME team, has published a new research paper entitled "Rosette-forming glioneuronal tumours are midline, FGFR1- mutated tumours" in the Neuropathology and Applied Neurobiology journal. 

The latest article for NPD team 1 has been published this month into the Journal of Neuroinflammation.

Membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase 5 (MT5-MMP) deficiency in the 5xFAD mouse model of Alzheimer's disease reduces brain neuroinflammation along with amyloidosis, and prevents deficits in synaptic activity and cognition in prodromal stages of the disease. In addition, MT5-MMP deficiency prevents interleukin-1 beta (IL-1β)-mediated inflammation in the peripheral nervous system.

Don't miss the next Neuro'binar of NeuroMarseille with Emmanuel Nivet (Team 6) !

Next Tuesday, on March 22nd, 2022, at 1 pm online, discover Dr Emmanuel Nivet's work in the 13th edition of Neuro'binar:

🔘  Emmanuel Nivet (INP) will present his research topic entitled: "Human induced pluripotent stem cells to study the role of astrocytes in Alzheimer’s disease"
