Our study reports the key role played by NAc D1R/D2R-SPN balance of activity in controlling social behavior and evidences the promises of pharmacological compounds developed
We have identified a novel cocaine-induced epigenetic mechanism in the thalamus relevant to cocaine use disorders in humans. https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.11.16.516716v1
Welcome! to Aleksandra, Antonieta, the new PhD students in the lab. And also, Fares and Sébastien, the new postdoctoral fellows.
At the origin of many discoveries, the nematode C. elegans has forged a solid reputation as a genetic model organism. Its use as a pharmacological
Our work highlights a complementary encoding of behaviors in the two striatal pathways that supports an updated model, reconciling previous conflicting conclusions on motor encoding
