Presentation
Based on complementary expertises in oligodendrocyte regeneration (B. Nait-Oumesmar), neuro-inflammation (V. Zujovic) and stem cell biology (A. Baron-Van Evercooren), the common goal of team is to provide a better understanding of the cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in myelin regeneration and to develop innovative therapies enhancing remyelination and providing effective neuroprotection for demyelinating disorders.
