Peering into the cognitive brain
Aiming at dissecting the mechanisms leading to the function and dysfunction of the mammalian brain, our two laboratories decided to join efforts. The composite team thus combines an unusually interdisciplinary and complementary expertise, that ranges from mouse genetics to transcriptomics, neurophysiology and behavior.
Our current work focuses on understanding the role played by the claustrum - a very poorly understood neural structure - in cognitive processes. We are in particular interested in unraveling the architecture and functional logic of this neuronal circuit, and in evaluating its potential dysfunction in mental diseases characterized by cognitive deficits, such as schizophrenia and autism.
