✨Lida was interviewed on the "Big Bang" radio show and science program hosted by astrophysicist Christophe Galfard together with Camille Chamoux and Isabelle Ader to discuss the passing of time and its effects, from a cultural to a research point of view.
It was a fantastic opportunity to talk about the challenges, breakthroughs, and hopes that drive aging research, and to make these ideas accessible to a broader audience.✨ The episode aired Saturday 27/9/2025 at 11am.

✨ Excited to welcome Sylia Christou to our team! ✨
She’ll be working on brain aging mechanisms, and she will explore how blood and CSF factors from patients can accelerate this process.
Big thanks to the Fondation Pierre Deniker grant for supporting this exciting project 
Looking forward to the fresh ideas and energy she’ll bring. Welcome aboard, Sylia!

June 2025

As the summer begins, we say goodbye to Alexandros Tsiouris, our Erasmus+ intern, who is wrapping up his research internship with us!
Over the past few months, Alexandros has participated in our ongoing projects on neural stem cell aging funded by Fondation Pierre Deniker, combining both experimental research and bioinformatics approaches with great curiosity and determination.
It’s been a pleasure having him in the lab — we’re proud of all he’s learned and accomplished.
Wishing you all the best for the future, Alexandros!
