Director of SPPIN Team leader for Molecular and Cellular Biophysics of Neuron-Glia Interactions Saints-Pères Paris Institute for the Neurosciences UMR 8003 CNRS & Université Paris Descartes, France Martin Oheim (*1970) studied physics in Duisburg (B.Sci.), Cambridge (M.Sci.) and Göttingen (PhD). Following postdoctoral fellowships in Göttingen (Max Planck) and Paris (ESPCI), he was an assistant professor and junior group leader at the Ecole Supérieure de Physique et Chimie Industrielle (ESPCI) in Paris. Recruited as a CNRS staff researcher, he has been a PI since 2001 and CNRS director of research since 2009. The Oheim lab is interested understanding the interaction of neurons and astrocytes in the rodent brain, using a combination of electrophysiology, advanced imaging and pharmacogenetics as well as ontogenetic techniques. The lab combines expertise in instrument development, notably in super-resolution and 2-photon microscopy and biological and biophysical research at the synaptic and sub-cellular scale. Martin Oheim is the founding director of the all-new CNRS Saints-Pères Paris Institute for the Neurosciences. |
