The LNEC is a mixed Inserm - University research unit composed of three teams located on the campus of Poitiers University. Our strategy favours a multidisciplinary approach that strongly links basic research that relies on various models of neurological and psychiatric disorders, to translational and clinical investigations, thanks to the strong interactions with clinical researchers that are also members of our research unit.
