He obtained his bachelor’s degree in Health Sciences with a focus on Neuroscience from the University of Caen (France), and later a master’s degree in Cellular, Molecular and Integrated Neuroscience. During his master’s thesis, he studied the impact of low-dose ionizing radiation in a rat model of vascular cognitive impairment within the ISTCT unit (Cyceron, Caen). He then pursued a PhD in the same team, focusing on the effects of physical activity on radiation-induced brain side effects.
As a postdoctoral researcher in the TheraFus laboratory, he investigates the use of focused ultrasound and magnetic nanodiscs as a therapeutic approach for glioblastoma in mouse models.
Although radiotherapy improves the prognosis of patients with brain cancer, it induces cognitive deficits. Animal models have been used to address the underlying mechanisms of these radiation-induced deficits. Nonetheless, in most of the animal studies, whole-brain irradiation has been applied, deviating from the clinical practice, where the goal is to reduce the exposure of healthy brain tissue to radiation. Here we analyzed in rats the evolution of brain tissue injury and cognitive impairments...
