To carry out their activities, Research Teams of the Frédéric Joliot Institute for Life Sciences have developed high-profile technological platforms in many areas : biomedical imaging, structural biology, metabolomics, High-Throughput screening, level 3 microbiological safety laboratory...
All the news of the Institute of life sciences Frédéric Joliot
The first joint scientific meeting of the Paris-Sud and Paris-Center nodes of the France Life Imaging Biology and Health Infrastructure was held on the 14th of September 2017, at the SHFJ in Orsay. The theme was the integration of heterogeneous imaging and biology data. Many researchers from the Frédéric Joliot Institute took part in this event attended by more than 100 people, including 1 / 5th of industrialists.
A Research Team in psychiatry at CEA-NeuroSpin, in collaboration with the Mondor Institute for Biomedical Research (INSERM) and Henri-Mondor University Hospitals, AP-HP, has shown that a genetic variant associated with multiple psychiatric disorders alters a network. prefronto-limbic, which would increase the risk of developing schizophrenia or bipolar disorder. The results of this study are published online October 2, 2017 in the Journal of Neuroscience.
On the occasion of the national day of "dys", discover the work carried out by the teams of the NeuroSpin research infrastructure, on the CEA Paris-Saclay center.
Organized within the framework "DRF Impulsion", this event will be moderated by Virginie van Wassenhove, researcher at NeuroSpin, and Etienne Klein, and will focus on Big Data.
Paris-Saclay University is pleased to present the MOOC "Journey to the heart of life with X-rays: crystallography", result of a close collaboration between the Department I2BC @ Saclay (pedagogical director: Marie-Hélène Le Du ), the Sun Synchrotron, the Ecole Polytechnique, the CNRS, and the University Paris Sud.
Researchers from BIAM (CEA / Cadarache), in collaboration with a Research Team of the Frédéric Joliot Institute (I2BC @ Saclay), the BGE laboratory and ESFR (Grenoble) have discovered an enzyme that allows microalgae to transform certain from their fatty acids to hydrocarbons using only light energy. Published on 01/09/2017 in Science, this major discovery was the subject of a press release.
For more than 30 years, the Service of Pharmacology and Immunoanalysis (SPI) of the CEA's Frédéric Joliot Institute offers its expertise in the development of immunoanalytical methods, physicochemical analyzes (LC-MS), genetic detection ( PCR) and cell culture allowing it to address the detection, quantification and fate of potentially dangerous molecules or microorganisms. Since 2005, his research in the field of biosafety has been supported by the interdepartmental R&D program NRBC-E, entrusted by public authorities to the CEA.
In early 2017, the DRF management launched a new call for projects whose aim is to stimulate changes or new interactions between its institutes. This year, management has decided to consolidate and strengthen all of its incentive actions into one larger program. Research Teams at the Frédéric Joliot Institute have been very active in getting involved.
