Fabien Pifferi
Summary
"The mouse lemur as a model for research on aging
Dr. Pifferi is researcher at the French National Research Center (CNRS). He graduated with a PhD in Nutritional Neuroscience from the University of Paris Sud (France) in 2007. He completed his postdoctoral studies at the Research Center on Aging of University of Sherbrooke (Canada). He is an expert in the biology of aging in a non-human primate model, the grey mouse lemur (Microcebus murinus) and is primarily interested in the influence of nutritional factors on brain functions during the aging process. His studies gather many approaches (behaviour, chronobiology, neurophysiology) inside the Laboratory of Adaptive Mechanisms and Evolution in Brunoy which hosts a breeding colony of grey mouse lemurs."
