[FR] Congrès, Fragilité du sujet agé 2020
La réponse biomécanique du système nerveux central est corrélée à la fragilité chez des patients présentant un vieillissement cérébral pathologique. CONTEXTE Le concept de fragilité est interprété comme un vieillissement accéléré induisant un risque accru d’apparition de maladies dont les maladies neurodégénératives. La fragilité et le vieillissement cérébral pathologique semblent partager des processus neurobiologiques communs. […]
Paper accepted in Journal of Neurology
Our paper “Biomechanical response of the CNS is associated with frailty in NPH-suspected patients ” is accepted in Journal of Neurology ! I hope this is the beginning of a long series (and good story) ! Abstract : “Frailty is known to predict dementia. However, its link with neurodegenerative alterations of the central nervous system (CNS) […]
Researchers’ Night 2019
I initiated an outreach action for the Researcher Night event 2019 in Toulouse based on a new mode of narrative for sciences. An immersive and interactive game was presented to the public. The players experienced the scientist tools to unravel a Sherlock Holmes’s enigma about the mysterious crime of Mr. Brain. The body of Mr. […]
