Michel Thiebaut de Schotten

In this position I'm trying to know more about the connections in the human frontal lobe (grant: ANR-CAFORPFC). Meanwhile I'm trying to understand how the alzheimer disease spread along white matter pathways (grant: ANR-HMTC).This research led me to the following publications:- Andrade K, Samri D, Sarazin M, Cruz de Sousa L, Cohen L, Thiebaut de Schotten M, Dubois B, Bartolomeo P. Visual Neglect in Posterior Cortical Atrophy. BMC Neurology (2010)

During that period I tried to bridge the gap between monkey and human neuroanatomy of the white matter connections. (Marie Curie - IEF - FP7 grant)This research led me to the following publications:- Thiebaut de Schotten M, ffytche D, Dell’acqua F, Pugliese L, Williams S, Murphy DGM and Catani M.
