Program

The team’s research program combines basic and translational research to identify new regulatory mechanisms of digestive smooth muscle differentiation and plasticity in pathophysiological conditions.

Based on developmental biology, our scientific strategy aims :

To identify new regulatory mechanisms of digestive smooth muscle differentiation and plasticity,

  1. To investigate these mechanisms in pathological conditions,
  2. To develop innovative approaches to target these mechanisms.

The team’s research project is structured in two axes :

  • Development and Plasticity of digestive smooth muscle : Metabolic and mechanical regulation.
  • Digestive mesenchymal Pathologies and innovative therapeutic approaches
