Thuret Lab

Welcome to the website of the Adult Neurogenesis & Mental Health Laboratory based at King's College London

We investigate environmental and molecular mechanisms controlling neural stem cell fate, hippocampal neurogenesis and how they impact mental health

As part of an EU collaboration across Ireland, Italy and the UK, the Thuret lab published this month in the journal Brain their recent finding showing that the Gut Microbiota from Alzheimer’s patients induce deficits in cognition and hippocampal neurogenesis.
