It just goes to show that reason ends up convincing the most recalcitrant! the world bank, certainly not a leftist and environmentalist Huber lulu environment, finally supports the need to completely review the agri-food system. The exorbitant ecological cost of intensive agriculture and the food that results from it would be enough to fail to … Read more
The Israeli president even decreed that all residents, including children, are terrorists. HE obviously hasn’t seen this little film which shows endearing, moving and I would say beautiful children. This type of film seriously contributes to making more human a population that we are described as bloodthirsty. These children thank US universities for their support … Read more
The case was clear: cancers are due to an unpredictable genetic mutation, in short, bad luck, the accumulation of mutations in the DNA leads to the disruption of certain key genes and the disordered cells begin to proliferate until form a cluster of abnormal cells: a tumor. Treatments are also focused on how to counteract … Read more
Dr Chedotal’s team (Paris Vision Institute) has already demonstrated its extraordinary abilities to study brain maturation with a tool that it masters and uses masterfully: the Light Sheet Microscope. Exploiting his proximity to hospitals and the links he has patiently developed over several years, Alain Chedotal was able to have access to human embryos (termination … Read more
To treat autism, I have often insisted on the importance of determining the electrical modifications, particularly the inaugural pathological event which occurs in utero. The concept of neuroarchaeology states that these initial events result in the persistence of neurons that remain immature – which do not mature and which disrupt brain functioning. We have thus … Read more
The massacres of 7/10 are on everyone’s minds and the people of Hamas are not children at heart; they have blood, rape and massacre on their hands and should be tried in The Hague for war crimes and crimes against humanity.

We like simple things in the modern, digital world, white or black, 0 or 1! Autism is either the fault of the mother or poor genetics. But both are false! the idea of the mother’s fault was born in the mind of a twisted psychologist, which has no scientific basis, if only because the syndrome … Read more

A priori, this is not a scoop, we are different on a biological level and certain organs are present in Madame not in Monsieur and vice versa. The same for certain hormones and reactions – for example more empathy in Madame in general than in Monsieur. And the brain? Numerous studies have suggested differences for … Read more
The message has been repeated for 5 decades, everything or almost everything has DNA as its origin! IQ, intelligence, faith, crime, homosexuality and of course the majority of illnesses, including neurological and psychiatric syndromes. 50 or 80% of the origin of autism is genetic, the same goes for schizophrenia and even Alzheimer’s disease. This message … Read more
We have been told for some time, particularly since the pioneering work of Rachel Carlson, that insects and birds are disappearing at an alarming rate. In a recent study carried out by a conglomerate of 50 researchers from 28 European countries by a team from Montpellier (Vincent Devictor) explains to us how they proceeded to … Read more
Since Darwin, we have all known that we are the product of evolution and are therefore linked to those who preceded us. Since Lamarck, we also know that acquired characters can be transmitted and that DNA is only one of the vehicles in this long chain: there is also an evolution of acquired characters not … Read more
Earthworms – the well-known earthworm – had already attracted the attention of Darwin who devoted a volume of work to them… Their incredible benefits are finally slowly becoming a major subject. Consider that their ability to stimulate plant growth is unparalleled, their presence in the soil increases harvests by 25%, to match the millions invested … Read more
In order to put a drug on the market, clinical trials are required which culminate in a large so-called phase 3 trial. This requires the recruitment of thousands of patients and compare those who receive the treatment versus a placebo. There must be a statistically significant difference between treated and placebo on 1 criterion called … Read more
WE ARE JEWISH WRITERS, artists, and activists who wish to disavow the widespread narrative that any criticism of Israel is inherently antisemitic. Israel and its defenders have long used this rhetorical tactic to shield Israel from accountability, dignify the US’s multibillion-dollar investment in Israel’s military, obscure the deadly reality of occupation, and deny Palestinian sovereignty. … Read more
Paths of discovery are complex and rarely follow a well-established linear path; Basic research initially without any medicinal profit motives are always the starting point. Here, we are talking about an Outstanding Biophysicist from Jerusalem and then from the Technion in Haifa who started with a simple idea: we treat a number of neurological and … Read more
We have known for a long time that the earlier we detect cancer, the greater the chance of reducing it with the usual treatments – chemo and radio and different molecules. It has also long been suspected that a sedentary lifestyle makes things worse; physical activity ranging from walking to exercises that activate the cardiovascular … Read more
We need objective coverage of the conflict at a time when the Israeli side masters that perfectly leading to images of the Hamas massacres but poor coverage of GAZA massacre. +972 is an independant media with Palestinians and Israeli editors and does correctly the job deserves our support.

Many disorders are born in utero including Autism and many neurodevelopmental disorders. to understand hos they are generated and whether and how brain structures are impacted already in utero, it is instrumental to develop quantitative atlases of brain structures. IN this aim, we used the recently developed transparization (I disco) technique that enable to dissolve … Read more

Our attempts to treat children with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) with the NKCC1 chloride importer antagonist have met with some success with several hundreds of children treated successfully in several trial made in France, China, Sweden, Great Britain, Holland and Tunisia. Yet a large phase 3 (400 children in Europe, Brazil, Australia and US) failed. … Read more
Short video depicting the hypothesis that autism and developmental disorders are generated in utero and how identification of the alterations they produce will enable their early prediction and novel treatments.
Despite hundreds of children successfully treated in phase 2 and pilot trials around the world, the failure of phase 3 with Servier illustrates the difficulty of developing a universal treatment for autism. See the Press Release :
GABA and glutamate undergo developmental changes in their organization, and for GABA even its polarity (from Excitation to Inhibition). There are experimental indications that they are also impacted by in-utero insults and by alterations in labor and birth. Animal and human studies also indicate that preterm birth is associated with an increased incidence of developmental disorders … Read more
Birth is a complex and intricate physiological process involving several mechanisms that allow a swift adaptation of the newborn to extrauterine life. Indeed, during birth the brain undergoes profound changes to cope with oxygen deprivation and the squeezing of the head. However, some or all of these mechanisms and changes do not take place if … Read more
