An international cooperation in precision psychiatry
Launched by Inserm in 2024, as a Thematic Cooperation Program (PCT), the INPP network strengthens international collaborations in precision psychiatry.
The network is coordinated by Marion Leboyer and Pierre-Michel Llorca, with support from Inserm’s International Affairs Office (Olivier Steffen, Laura Kliemann).
The joint doctoral projects presented were as follows:
- France–Norway : “A multidimensional study of NK cells in schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and autism spectrum disorders”. Vincent Vieillard / Ole Andreassen / Maud Apavou.
- France–Sweden : “Severe sepsis and septic shock in patients with severe mental illness”. Laurent Boyer / Jari Tiihonen / Yann Brousse.
- France–United Kingdom : “Psychiatric immuno-genetic imaging”. Marion Leboyer / Neil Harrison / Jonathan Chabert.
- France–Canada : “Impact of nitric oxide on mother–newborn brain synchrony (EEG hyperscanning)”. Renaud Jardri / Guillaume Dumas / Marine Gautier–Martins.
The INPP network paves the way for and complements PEPR PROPSY program, by promoting international training, translational approaches, and the development of biomarkers.
