Conference - Visual field maps and white matter tracts in the human visual system

Speaker : Hiromasa Takemura, National Institute for Physiological Sciences
Okazaki (Japan)
Invited by Michel Thiebaut de Schotten
Date: March 17th 2023 / 09:30-11:00
Venue: BROCA Auditorium
 
Abstract:
Over the last several decades, system neuroscience has made substantial progress in understanding brain functions by measuring response properties of individual brain regions and their relation to behavior. However, it is not yet fully understood how such brain functions are related to the structural properties of the nervous system. To address unresolved question on structure-function relationship in the brain, one needs to understand how functional organization of the brain is related to the neuroanatomy. The visual system is an ideal system to address such question since functional organization principle of visual areas, such as visual field maps, and anatomical connections between areas are relatively understood. In this talk, I will describe recent studies investigating the relationship between functional organization of the visual areas and neuroanatomy of the visual system. First, I will describe a recent study (Miyata et al., 2022) investigating a relationship between the size of the human primary visual cortex (V1) and the optic tract by analyzing fMRI and diffusion-weighted MRI (dMRI) in the Human Connective Project 7T Retinotopy dataset (Benson et al., 2018), based on hypothesis from a previous post-mortem study (Andrews et al., 1997). Second, I will describe studies investigating the relationship between human extrastriate visual field maps (V3A/B and hV4) and the Vertical Occipital Fasciculus (VOF), which is a white matter tract connecting dorsal and ventral visual streams (Takemura et al., 2016). The analysis combining fMRI and dMRI suggests that the VOF is an important pathway for integration of upper and lower visual field information in the human visual system. In addition, I will discuss that such finding can be extended into non-human primate visual system (Takemura et al., 2017; 2020). Finally, I will briefly describe other recent projects in the lab, such as a parcellation of the visual thalamus using quantitative MRI (Oishi et al., 2023) and co
mparative diffusion MRI on visual white matter pathways.

Seminar – Structural and functional neuroanatomy of Autism Spectrum in women

Speaker : Hélène Vulser, Maître de Conférence – Praticien Hospitalier (MCU-PH)
Responsable du Centre du Neurodéveloppement Adulte Service de Psychiatrie Adulte, Hôpital Pitié-Salpêtrière, Paris

Invited by Hervé Lemaître (GIN – IMN)

Date : vendredi 9 juin / 14:00

Venue: Centre Broca

Abstract:
The gender unbalance in Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) – 4:1, males to females – has led studies to focus mainly on males leaving one part of the population mostly unstudied. Explanations for such an imbalance have suggested a potential male bias resulting in females being historically under-recognized, or alternatively, that females harbor a protective effect making them less likely to develop autism. For example, female could engage in “compensation” showing fewer or less severe symptoms. In this case, studying autistic traits at a subclinical level could unreveal part of the behavioral aspect of ASD, particularly in women. Autistic traits have been defined as restricted activities/stereotypical behaviors and deficits in interaction and social communication as in ASD but at a subclinical level. The degree of these autistic traits is also referred to as the broader autism phenotype that can also be distributed along a continuum in the general population.
The neuroimaging field has also been affected by this gender unbalance and only few studies has tackled the question of brain correlates of ASD in women and even less in the framework of broad autism phenotype. However, structural and functional neuroanatomy studies in women with ASD are needed to uncover part of the heterogeneity due to gender within the neurobiology of ASD. Moreover, exploring autistic traits in women could help to understand how subclinical level of ASD interact with these brain correlates and if they might be used to predict clinical outcome or to adapt intervention in another framework than a clear cut between ASD and neurotypical individuals.

Seminar - Disconnectome, do we need it?

Speaker: Chris Foulon

Invited by Michel Thiebaut de Schotten

Venue: IBIO, espace k

Date: Decembre 7th, 2023, 11am

Introduction: The Disconnectome is the estimation of white matter disconnections after a brain injury. By analyzing the Disconnectome, we can better understand the effects of lesions on behaviour and recovery, compared to solely observing the lesion's location. Furthermore, the Disconnectome helps us improve our understanding of human cognitive functions.

 

Seminar - BraDiPho: Integrating diffusion tractography with photogrammetric dissection of the human brain

Speaker: Laura Vavassori

Invited by Michel Thiabaut de Schotten

Venue: IBIO, Espace k

Date: Decembre 7th, 11am

Introduction: The investigation of white matter anatomy remains somewhat divided between studies favouring ex-vivo microdissection and those prioritizing in-vivo tractography. We have developed BraDiPho (Brain Dissection Photogrammetry), an innovative an online/offline framework that currently integrates for the first time both ex-vivo microdissection and in-vivo dMRI-based tractography data of the human brain.

Journées nationales France Life Imaging (FLI)

Les journées nationales France Life Imaging (FLI) regroupant tous les Réseaux d'Expertise, se sont tenues les 11 et 12 décembre 2023 à Bordeaux.
 
Ces journées scientifiques répondent au double objectif :
 
• de faire émerger de nouvelles collaborations entre équipes françaises travaillant en imagerie médicale
• de faire un point sur les recherches menées en imagerie médicale et financés par FLI en France.
 
Durant ces journées scientifiques, on a pu y suivre des présentations de projets financés par FLI autour des technologies émergentes dans différents laboratoires en France.
Puis en fin de journées, une visite des principaux équipements ouverts à la communauté scientifique, en imagerie clinique et préclinique, a été organisée sur les sites de l'Institut de Bio-Imagerie et de l'IHU Liryc.

Séminaire TAD - "Structurer et propulser l'approche multivers pour l'analyse de données IRM faisant usage des techniques d'apprentissage automatique”

Date : 18 janvier 2024, 13h

Lieu : salle 76 LaBRI

Jeremy Lefort-Besnard, postdoc à Inria Rennes, présentera ses travaux "Structurer et propulser l'approche multivers pour l'analyse de données IRM faisant usage des techniques d'apprentissage automatique”.

*Titre* : Structurer et propulser l'approche multivers pour l'analyse de données IRM faisant usage des techniques d'apprentissage automatique

*Résumé* : Face à la crise de reproductibilité, la communauté de la neuroimagerie a réagi en instaurant diverses mesures, telles que le partage du code et la conteneurisation des environnements logiciels. Cependant, il est crucial de noter que ces mesures ne garantissent pas nécessairement la robustesse des résultats, c'est-à-dire leur stabilité face aux variations des procédures expérimentales. Pour améliorer cette robustesse, une approche pertinente consiste à prendre en considération de manière appropriée les sources essentielles de variations. L'idée de suivre simultanément de nombreux chemins analytiques dans le même ensemble de données, afin de donner du sens à un multivers de choix possibles, se présente comme une solution prometteuse pour atteindre cet objectif. Dans le cadre de mon projet de recherche, je propose une structuration du multivers spécifiquement dédiée à l'analyse de données IRM faisant usage des techniques d'apprentissage automatique. Ce projet vise à standardiser une méthodologie permettant un éclairage exhaustif de la variabilité des résultats engendrée par les choix analytiques, contribuant ainsi à renforcer la confiance et la fiabilité des résultats obtenus.

Séminaire Numérique et Santé - Kilian Hett

Date : 25 janvier, 11h

Lieu : Amphithéâtre du LaBRI

Kilian Hett, Clinical Scientist, Department of Neurology at Vanderbilt University Medical Center, nous présentera sa conférence :

"Novel non-invasive markers of the cerebrospinal fluid circuits: assessment of glymphatic clearance mechanisms"

Introduction: The cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is mainly produced from the choroid plexus, located in the atrium of the lateral ventricles, passing through the 3rd ventricle and through the cerebral aqueduct to join the 4th ventricle before flowing to the more spread subarachnoid space. New hypotheses suggest that CSF is resorbed near the superior sinus, the so-called parasagittal dural space. The CSF circuit has an important function in nutrient delivery but also in brain waste clearance as it has a crucial role to play in the glial-lymphatic (glymphatic) system. Developing non-invasive methods to characterize this circuit is therefore essential to explore new hypotheses pertaining to impaired waste clearance and neurodegenerative diseases with proteinopathies, such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease. This offers novel perspectives for understanding neurophysiological processes that could impact clinical applications. Consequently, our research group has developed new methods to quantify structures implicated in the CSF circuits, spanning from production to egress. We investigated changes throughout the human lifespan and applied these methods to test hypotheses in cohort of patients with neurodegeneration.
