Description du sujet de thèse
Gestation and motherhood in mammals open a window of significant brain plasticity. We will test the impact of these physiological states on the spatiotemporal dynamics of adult neurogenesis in mice, by analyzing single-cell and spatial transcriptomic data. The project involves optimizing existing bioinformatics tools for this purpose, as well as developing new tools to address our biological questions of interest.
Contexte de travail
The team "Spatiotemporal Logic of Adult Neurogenesis" is located within UMR 5242, at the Institute of Functional Genomics of Lyon (IGFL). It is a multidisciplinary institute, offering an interesting exposure to several system models around common themes related to development, regeneration, evolution, and physiology. One of the strengths of the institute is the quality of the imaging and single-cell and spatial transcriptomics platforms. Our team is supported by funding from the Foundation for Medical Research (FRM), ATIP-AVENIR, and ERC Starting Grants.
