Research Interests 🧠🔬

Dr. Jacques-Olivier Coq’s research focuses on cortical and spinal plasticity, particularly in relation to altered sensorimotor experiences during development and adulthood, perceptual abilities, and the effects of stroke and perinatal hypoxia/ischemia. His work involves developing animal models for pathologies such as Encephalopathy of Prematurity, Cerebral Palsy, spasticity, and Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD). Using tools like mesenchymal stem cells and lactoferrin supplementation, he aims to understand the underlying mechanisms of these disorders and develop new neuroprotective strategies. His expertise includes cognition, learning, behavior, locomotion, and electrophysiology (in vivo/vitro patch-clamp and multi-electrode recordings). 🧑‍🔬📈

 

Conclusion

Dr. Jacques-Olivier Coq’s extensive experience, impactful publications, international collaborations, and focus on pressing neurological conditions make him a highly suitable candidate for the Best Researcher Award. His work not only advances our understanding of sensorimotor integration and neurodevelopmental disorders but also contributes to developing new therapeutic strategies, aligning well with the award’s objectives of recognizing outstanding research and innovation in the field.
