The Courchet team has been awarded a 20,000€ research grant from the Neurodis foundation to study the alterations of mouse cognition and neural circuits formation resulting from mutation in the Nuak1 gene.
The projet will continue our work on the characterization of the functional consequences of Nuak1 gene mutations associated to neurodevelopmental disorders and will especially focus on the function of the Nuak1 gene in learning and memory.

We are very grateful for the support from the foundation and look forward to develop this exciting project.
