Développement d’un modèle de cécité corticale chez la souris

Les déficiences visuelles, dues à des lésions cérébrales, touchent les nouveau-nés et les personnes âgées des pays industrialisés, en raison de l’allongement de la vie. Ce projet de recherche va utiliser la souris pour étudier la récupération des fonctions visuelles après un AVC. Il va explorer les modifications neuronales et de connectivité grâce à des techniques avancées telles que l’imagerie calcique et l’inactivation optogénétique. Cette étude pourrait ouvrir la voie à de nouvelles thérapies pour les troubles visuels cérébraux.
