Marion Canuel is a study engineer. 

After graduating in 2021 with a bachelor's degree in biology, specializing in physiology, she entered the Preclinical and Clinical Animal Research master's program (Lyon 1 University, France). This diploma enabled her to acquire knowledge of animal welfare, ethics and experimentation regulations. In order to consolidate her technical skills, she completed a work-study program at the Centre de Recherche en Cancérologie (Lyon), studying the role of myeloid cells in TGF-beta activation in melanoma, using mouse models. 
Marion then joined our institute in February 2024, to work on the molecular plasticity mechanisms taking place in various brain regions from different PD animal models. At the same time, she participates to another project, which investigates the involvement of a primate cortico-basal ganglia pathway in impulsivity. This is done in collaboration with the Stem Cell and Brain Research Institute (Bron, France).
