Grâce à des expériences en IRM, des scientifiques explorent notre manière de raisonner. Dans ce film, découvrez comment leur travail pourrait aboutir à de nouveaux outils pédagogiques pour apprendre à discerner les vraies des fausses informations.

Que se passe-t-il dans notre cerveau lorsque l'on sent une odeur ? La perte d'odorat, qui touchait déjà une personne sur cinq avant le Covid-19, est-elle réversible ? Peut-on créer un nez artificiel ? Venez suivre une équipe du Centre de recherche en neurosciences de Lyon (CNRL) qui s'intéresse aux étonnantes interactions entre le cerveau et l'odorat.

As part of its participation in VivaTech 2022, the European event dedicated to technological innovation, CNRS is presenting a sample of its deeptech know-how through various start-ups from its laboratories. Among them, Damae Medical is reinventing medical imaging. Its deepLive™ solution enables accurate, fast and reliable non-invasive optical skin examination in the screening and monitoring of skin cancers. As for Genoskin, its technology is designed to provide…

Jean-Philippe Lachaux is conducting his research on the treatment of epilepsy at the neurological clinic in Lyon in Inserm's “Brain dynamics and Cognition” laboratory. Epilepsy is a disorder affecting one per cent of the French population. Using electrodes planted into specific brain areas of patients, neurologists are enabled to track their brain activity in real time on a TV screen. Through this brain TV they can identify epileptic foci and thus avoid damaging healthy brain cells during…

Phillippe Cinquin, is a professor and hospital practitioner, director of the laboratory Techniques de l'ingénierie médicale et de la complexité - informatique, mathématiques et applications de Grenoble (TIMC-IMAG - Medical engineering and complexity technology, IT, mathematics and application) and co-director of the Centre d'investigation clinique - Innovation technologique de Grenoble (Grenoble Clinical investigation centre - technological innovations) . As a 2013 CNRS innovation medal winner,…

Nowadays medical imaging techniques allow to obtain more and more sophisticated and effective images. This film shows the works of four laboratories specialized in the bones observation.

Implants and prosthesis allow nowadays to replace partially, and sometimes entirely, some deficient organs. Multidisciplinary researches are launched to secure their surgical insertion, to avoid their rejection and also to cure. Three laboratories outline in this film their works on biomaterials and on tomorrow implants.

Mathias Fink, the director of the Langevin Institute, who received the CNRS 2011 Innovation Medal, presents in this film the principle of his inventions, which have made his success.

A tumor is a set of cells which grows in an exponential and anarchic way.Iin this short film, Gérard Déleris, a researcher from the Laboratory for Pharmaco-chemistry, explains the chemists ' researches who work on very specialized antitumor treatment.

The two cerebral hemispheres manage distinct functions. It was discovered more than a century ago through the observation of patients suffering from brain injuries. Today thanks to the functional magnetic resonance imaging, the functioning of the brain in action can be explored and finely analyzed on sane volunteers.

Since autism was described for the first time by Kanner in 1943, the criteria used to define the symptoms have evolved considerably. An Inserm study has estimated that the rate of autism in the population is 27 cases for every 10,000 people. A genetic basis, while not explaining everything, seems ever more likely. Furthermore, modern imaging tools are beginning to bring answers to certain dysfunctions in the perception of emotions. Other researchers are proposing innovative techniques…

Images have always been at the core of the scientific research. Thanks to computer processing and new visualization tools, they have acquired movement, volume and new resolutions, from the smallest atomic scale to cosmic dimensions. This film tries to give meaning to these 21 images and offers the keys to decode them.
