Identify the genetic basis of myopathies
Subgroup Leader : Valérie BIANCALANA
We study rare and severe neuromuscular disorders caused by mutations in proteins controlling intracellular organization and dynamics. We aim to tackle the three main bottlenecks in this field:
Identify the genetic basis of myopathies, myalgia and high athletic performances
Project leaders : Valérie BIANCALANA, Johann BOHM, Jocelyn LAPORTE
Understand and cure myotubular/centronuclear myopathies through gene modulation and pharmacology
Project leader : Jocelyn LAPORTE
Understand and cure tubular aggregates myopathy and Stormorken syndrome through gene modulation and pharmacology
