Les recherches de Heike Schuler menées au sein du laboratoire de la Dre Rosemary Bagot montrent que les souris mâles et femelles réagissent différemment au stress, soulignant l’importance d’une recherche en neurosciences qui tient compte du sexe biologique. tinyurl.com/bdxcxb2s #Neurosciences
Quand les données parlent d’elles-mêmes
À son arrivée dans le laboratoire de Rosemary Bagot, Ph. D., Heike Schuler s’intéressait à la neurobiologie de la dépression. Plus précisément, elle souhaitait utiliser des modèles murins pour étudier...

🧠 Ce qui se passe dans le cerveau à l’adolescence pourrait aider à comprendre pourquoi la dépression touche différemment les garçons et les filles. Une nouvelle étude du Centre Ludmer de McGill met en lumière des mécanismes moléculaires propres au sexe biologique.
