"Strokes are made of this"
Résumé
Michel Thiebaut de Schotten, qui rejoindra prochainement l’équipe GIN de Nathalie Tzourio-Mazoyer, a reçu une subvention ERC “consolidator”.
Much of our existing knowledge about the workings of the healthy brain comes from studying patients who have suffered brain injuries, for example, due to a stroke. However, despite this, we still have little idea of the impact which brain damage has on the networks of neuronal connections across the whole brain which underlie key cognitive functions.
While conventional neuroimaging analyses can detect the location and structure of a lesion, they tell us little about the wider impact of a particular lesion on the brain’s neuronal circuitry. Understanding this is crucial to being able to quantify the effects of brain damage on the whole brain, as well as exploring the effects of such lesions on a person’s behavioural and cognitive abilities.
This could improve our understanding of brain function, and lead to better clinical care for patients suffering from brain damage.
