2016/08/26 Post-doctoral position in pre-clinical ultrasound and optical imaging, Paris

Our team in involved in the H2020 European Project Folsmart ( http://cordis.europa.eu/project/rcn/200186_en.html ) dedicated to the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis using a new strategy targeting folate receptors with a liposome-based nanovector. We are in charge of the pre-clinical evaluation of this nanovector and the investigation of its mechanism of action in mice. We will use in vivo imaging techniques to address these questions, including high resolution ultrasound, opto-acoustics (also called photoacoustics), in vivo bi-photon imaging and ultra-fast ultrasound imaging.

We offer a 2-year post-doctoral position to implement these tools in order to characterize and provide early assessment of the therapy in preclinical models of rheumatoid arthritis. Date of Employment should be between 17th October and the end of December 2016.

2016/03/03 Post-doctoral position – multimodal SEP data, Rennes, France

Early medullar MRI markers and late physical handicap in multiple sclerosis patients – Exploitation of a multimodal and multi-centric project database

The main goal of this post-doctoral position will be to develop and evaluate new methods for spinal cord MR analysis and derive markers of spinal cord burden related to ambulatory disability. Therefore, the work will encompass several methodological tasks starting with registration between different MR sequences and between different time points in the same subject, and between different subjects at a given time point. This work will, among others, rely on methods developed in the research team.

The second challenge will be devoted to the extraction of regions of interest in the spinal cord, whether white matter, gray matter, lesions or spinal cord tracts, using tools available from the literature or adapted from similar tasks on brain MRI for this purpose. The post-doctorate will further use all these tools to process the EMISEP database in order to evaluate both focal and diffuse burden as well as their evolution in time. The correlation between these markers and clinical scores acquired in parallel will then be investigated.
From a methodological perspective, this work will deal with
• registration between modalities, time points and patients
• segmentation of the spinal cord and MS lesions
• distortion correction
• statistical comparisons between imaging and clinical score

2016-02-22 Research fellow in theoretical/computational neuroscience

Open position: Research fellow in theoretical/computational neuroscience
Project title: Function brain tractography (F-TRACT)
Funding body: European Research Council (ERC)
Host institution: Inserm
Contract duration: 1 year, renewable
Starting date: As soon as possible. Applications will be considered until the position is filled.

Job description:
The successful candidate will have to develop the theoretical part of the F-TRACT project, which mainly aims at developing large-scale hierarchal brain model(s) using new information produced by the F-TRACT atlas. The model(s) developed will need to be directly connected to the F-TRACT data.

Project scientific summary:
In patients suffering from focal drug-resistant epilepsy who are explored using intracranial electrodes, single-pulse direct electrical stimulation of a cortical region induces electrophysiological responses in many of the implanted electrodes. The presence, latency and morphological characteristics of these cortico-cortical induced potentials can be used to infer functional and anatomical brain connectivity.
Intracerebral electrodes record from a small fraction of the volume of the brain in a single individual, allowing studying only a small fraction of the possible brain connections.
In F-TRACT, we develop methods to analyse those responses in order to create a new probabilistic atlas of electrophysiological functional tractography of the human brain, which will be made freely available to the clinical and neuroscience community. Several thousand stimulation runs performed in several hundred patients will be included in the atlas database to reach a nearly full coverage of the
human cortex. Neuroanatomical data (MRI, CT), electrophysiological data (intracranial EEG) and clinical data (e.g. epilepsy type, age at surgery, anatomical lesion, epileptogenic region) are confidentially gathered by the F-TRACT project from epilepsy surgery centres worldwide.
This new atlas of functional tractography will be very useful to understand how the brain works and to develop neurocomputational models at a large scale. It will also allow the development of new clinical tools for the presurgical evaluation of intractable epilepsy.
