Paul-Antoine Libourel.
Working at the French CNRS in the Neurosciences Research Center of Lyon (CNRS UMR 5292, INSERM U1028) in the SLEEP Team, my current researches focuses on sleep, its function(s), and its phenotypic variation across the animal kingdom. To do so I use comparative and integrated approaches including, electroencephalography, physiological recordings, behavioral quantification, neuroanatomy, and medical imaging. To reach that goal, we are developing hardware and software tools dedicated to recording and quantifying sleep in diverse species both in the lab and in the field. I’m currently focusing on vertebrate models with a special interest in reptiles and amphibians.
If you are interested in joining the team to work on biological or methodological projects, please feel free to send me an email, I’m always looking for interested and motivated students.
