Then I did my thesis at the University of Genoa in Italy under the supervision of Dr. Raffaella Tonini, and funded by the IIT (Istituto Italiano di Tecnologia). During this thesis I studied the modulation of cortico-striatal synapses in mice following the learning of operative behaviour. Using behavioral, biochemical, and pharmacological approaches I explored the role of the metabotropic glutamate 5 receptor in the formation of behavioral habit (publication in progress).<\/p>\n<p>In the continuity of my thesis research, I analyzed within these same synapses the role of the endocannabinoid system in behavioral flexibility. I conducted this study using a super-resolution microscopy method (dSTORM) in collaboration with the team of Professor Istv\u00e0n Katona of the Institute of Experimental Medicine in Budapest (publication in preparation).<\/p>\n<p>For my post-doctorate, I joined the team of David Perrais of the IINS in order to extend my research to dopaminergic synapses. I am doing this work with Etienne Herzog, and wish to analyze the protein composition of these synapses, their structural organization and their functioning. A better understanding of these synapses could allow us to better grasp the origin of certain diseases linked to the deregulation of the dopaminergic system such as addiction, Parkinson&#8217;s disease, or mood disorders.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Research axes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Protein content of dopaminergic synapses<\/li>\n<li>Structural and functional organization of dopaminergic synapses<\/li>\n<li>Synaptosomal preparations by flow cytometry<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Contact:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>vincent.paget-blanc@u-bordeaux.fr<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/@VincentPB_\">@VincentPB_<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Team :<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/team\/membrane-traffic-at-synapses-memtras\/\">MemTRAS<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New comer in the team Perrais, IINS. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":108,"featured_media":122717,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[321],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-122724","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-interview"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122724","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/108"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=122724"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/122724\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/122717"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=122724"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=122724"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bordeaux-neurocampus.fr\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=122724"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
