The main goal of the project is to develop a new generation of tools for local magnetic imaging and spectroscopy at the neuron scale in order to model the electromagnetic response of a neuron.
Objective 1: Local electromagnetic probes for multi-modal detection
Objective 2: Electromagnetic and chemical characterization of the neuron at the local scale with the dedicated tools developed in objective 1.
Objective 3: Modeling the electromagnetic fields due to active neurons and neuronal assemblies.
These objectives will be pursued through the following scientific workpackages:
WP 1 Electro-magnetic probes
WP 2 Local NMR spectroscopy probes
WP 3 In-vitro recordings of the EM activity
WP 4 In vivo recordings of the EM activity and local NMR
WP 5 Multi scale modeling
Two additionnal workpackages are devoted to the administration of the project and dissemination:
WP 6 Management
WP 7 Dissemination, collaboration and exploitation
