He has received various honors, such as, Roger de Spoelberch award for neurosciences (Switzerland) in 2010, FRM Fondation Guillaumat-Piel award (France) in 2013, and the Elsie Widdowson Lecture at the Neonatal Society, London, UK in 2017. Dr Gressens has been invited as a speaker to various prestigious conferences. He has published his research/ review articles in many international journal of great repute.
Dr Sreekala S. Nampoothiri is currently a post-doctoral researcher at INSERM 1172, Development and plasticity of the neuroendocrine brain, Université de Lille, Lille, France. She has a Phd in Biotechnology from National Institute of Technology Calicut, Kerala, on the thesis entitled “microRNA-9 upregulation integrates post-ischemic neuronal survival and regeneration-a systems biology approach”. She is a recipient of Raman Charpak Fellowship 2015 and performed a part of her doctoral thesis research at INSERM 1141, Université Paris Diderot, Hôpital Robert Debré, Paris. She was the University topper for her Masters (M.Tech) programme in Biotechnology and Biochemical Engineering (specialization in Molecular Medicine) at Sree Buddha College of Engineering, University of Kerala, Thiruvananthapuram, India, as well as for her Bachelors (B.E.) in Biomedical Engineering, from Anna University, Tamil Nadu, India. She was also selected by Indian Academy of Sciences as Summer Junior Research Fellow (SJRF) in May 2012. She has published articles in journals of good repute, and has also presented posters at various conferences and seminars.
