Challenges and strategy
Challenges
Four main obstacles hindered our ability to identify relevant underlying neurobiological alterations:
- The absence of animal models able to reproduce the complexity of the symptoms of these psychopathologies
- The lack of adapted technological tools to appropriately investigate the underlying neurobiological mechanisms of these behavioral pathologies
- The unavailability of sufficient material resources
- The lack of federation of human expertise, which is necessary to a transnosographic study of pathologies that share common dimensions
OptoPath Strategy
- Creating and coupling Cutting edge tools for in vivo brain activity recording and manipulationin behaving rodents
- Developing new high face validity behavioural models of Addiction, Obesity, PTSD and Memory Deficits
