- Post-Doctoral position in Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience in Grenoble, FranceEmployementfrom October 7, 2019 to December 31, 2019A post-doctoral position is available at the TIMC-IMAG Laboratory (team SPM; Health, Plasticity, Motricity) in Grenoble.The project, funded by the IDEX Univ. Grenoble Alpes, focuses on the mechanisms of formation and retention of motor memories during human development and involves neuroimaging experiments. Candidates must hold a Ph.D in Neuroscience or Psychology or related areas and have advanced experience in EEG recordings and analysis, including solid programming skills (Python, Matlab, etc). Additional experience in fMRI and multivariate statistics would be appreciated. This position will provide training in various areas of motor neuroscience, and will take advantage of expertise present at Grenoble-Alpes University via local collaborations. Proficiency in French language is not a pre-request.

- NeuroCoG Seminar Series: Monica Sousa, University of Porto, Portugalon the September 27, 2019On September 27th, 2019, NeuroCoG invited Monica Sousa, Group Leader at IBMC/i3S, University of Porto, Annie Andrieux (GIN) and Isabelle Arnal (GIN) for a conference entitled "From cytoskeleton to neuronal function" at Grenoble Institut Neurosciences (GIN). Nearly 40 people attended these presentations on neural functioning that the practitioners wanted to be accessible, in the spirit of the cross disciplinary project Neurocog.
- Using microfluidics to reconstruct a Huntington’s disease corticostriatal network, Virlogeux et al. identify recurrent pre- and postsynaptic alterations leading to global circuit dysfunctions and hypersynchrony. They further demonstrate that the genetic status of the presynaptic compartment determines integrity of the network.
- Studying intracellular dynamics in neurons is crucial to better understand how brain circuitscommunicate and adapt to environmental changes. In neurons, axonal secretory vesicles underlievarious functions from growth during development to plasticity in the mature brain. Similarly,transport of mitochondria, the power plant of the cell, regulates both axonal development and synaptichomeostasis.

From Neurons to Social Cognition in Grenoble
The NeuroCoG project aims to understand the biological, neurophysiological and functional bases of behavioral and cognitive processes in normal and pathological conditions, from cells to networks and from individual to social cognition. NeuroCoG is based on a wide-spectrum interdisciplinary approach (e.g. fundamental and cognitive neuroscience, chemistry, physics, cognitive and social psychology, education, language sciences, computer sciences, applied mathematics, and engineering; as well as clinical specialties such as neurology and psychiatry).
