Two Marie Curie grants awarded to researchers from the laboratory
Congratulations to Lucie Bernard (Leulier team) and Ludivine Bertonnier-Brouty (Heude team) for securing Marie Sklodowska-Curie funding! These prestigious European grants ((MSCA european fellowship) will support their research projects and further strengthen the scientific dynamism of their teams.
Ludivine Bertonnier-Brouty's project is titled "Sarcoma Analysis through Neck Development"
"This project aims to uncover sarcomagenesis mechanisms by studying the developmental processes at the origin of neck musculoskeletal differentiation. Using state of-the-art cell transcriptomic analysis tools and in vivo/in vitro function investigation, we aims to comprehensively analyse neck development and identify novel regulators of connective tissue malignancy."

Lucie Bernard's project is titled "Shaping Healthy Immune Early Life Dynamics: role of the virome in undernutrition"
The Virome-SHIELD project will investigate the contribution of the immune system to alterations of juvenile physiology during undernutrition —including intestinal inflammation, growth, metabolism, and sexual maturation— and how early exposures to commensal viruses (aka the virome) can modulate these immune responses.
Congratulations to them!
