Job Description
Missions
Analysis of the role of the periodic cytoskeleton in the morphology and functions of dendritic spines: Application of various treatments to neurons (disruptive drugs, protein depletion) and analysis of the impact on synaptic transmission and its plasticity, and the organisation of glutamate receptors before and after cytoskeletal disruption.
Activity
Immunolabelling and viral infection in dissociated neuronal cultures and organotypic slice cultures.
Conventional and super-resolution microscopy, associated image analysis and electrophysiological recording.
