Scientific interests

Violette is interested in the development of new imaging tools for neuropsychopharmacology. During her PhD, she developed several PET radiotracers for imaging serotonin receptors (5-HT_2B and 5-HT_1A). As a postdoctoral researcher at NRU, she is now focusing on the development of new radiotracers to image TrkB receptors and BDNF.
