Journées Chevreul 2015 : Lipids and Brain III

Du 16/03/2015

Au 18/03/2015

The Journées Chevreul Lipids & Brain III 2015 conference has been held in Paris on 16-18 March 2015.
Professor Michael Angus CRAWFORD from Imperial College (London, UK) received the CHEVREUL medal for his research on DHA identification as a major determinant of brain growth and plausible evolution of the human brain.
He put forward a quantum mechanical theory for the exclusive conservation of DHA in neural signalling
membranes over the 600 m.y. of animal evolution. Michael Crawford has been awarded several international prizes and medals for his work
Here below you will find the title of the each conference of the meeting and a link to the corresponding abstract, as well as all the poster abstracts. Please refer to the programme to get the different sessions.
