Scientific research program

 

The research programme is based on exceptional devices including technical platforms and medical imaging techniques such as fMRI, MEG, EEG aimed at exploring the various Central Nervous System physiological functions.
Our programme mainly consists of national and international projects in collaboration with outside teams.

The main research axes concern :

  basic central nervous system physiological states (sleep, vigilance…)
  cognitive functions 
  emotional states (anxiety, pain…)

In all these studies, the age factor is taken into account and all the approaches are often associated with drug intake. FORENAP location in a hospital environment allows to work with healthy volunteers and patients.
