Our Approach
We use human and animal studies and Omics technologies to describe the impact of environmental factors or genetic disruption of the circadian clock on normal physiology and pathology, as well as the involved molecular mechanisms.
Research Areas
Our research aims at characterizing how chronodisruption leads to pathologies, in particular for:
Ageing
- Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease
Common disease
- Liver pathologies, including Non-Alcoholic Liver Disease
