DAVID

Denis David, PhD, is Professor of Pharmacology at Paris-Saclay University and in the MOODS team. He characterized new animal model of anxiety/depression, in collaboration with Pr René Hen’s lab using various approaches, such as neurochemical, biochemical and behavioral approaches. Thus, using an ablation strategy of the hippocampal neurogenesis in this new animal model of anxiety/depression, he has shown that hippocampal neurogenesis is required for some of the behavioral effects of antidepressants. He is also currently investigating innovative methods as optogenetic and fiber photometry.
