Institut de Neurosciences de la Timone

The Institut de Neurosciences de la Timone is a large research centre located in the Timone hospital (Marseille). At its creation in 2012 its research focused on three main topics motor system, sensory systems, and regulatory systems. But in recent years, this list has expanded to include additional interdisciplinary themes centered on computational neuroscience and neuroinformatics. The number of research teams has progressively increased and has now reached thirteen. Globally, the thirteen different teams can be assigned to three main themes: three teams are working on the excitability of spinal networks, their intrinsic and network properties as well as non-neuronal interactions (P3M, ImaPath and SpiCCI), five teams work on the dynamics of cortical maps for decision, action and perception (ComCO, NeOpto, InVIBE, BaNCo and BRAINET) and the last five teams work on Cortical and Subcortical networks for social interaction (BaNCo, SONICS, SANE, BAGAMORE and CANOP). These different fu...
