Bassem Hassan - EXPeditions

I’m the Scientific Director of the Paris Brain Institute, and my research concerns how the brain develops.

I am a neurobiologist and the Research Director at Inserm, a public scientific and technological institute dedicated to biomedical research. My passion is to understand the fundamental mechanisms of the development and differentiation of the nervous system. My lab studies the genetic mechanisms that regulate the development of the nervous system.
