Overview

Angela Sirigu is affiliated with the Centre national de la recherche scientifique (CNRS) in France. Their work primarily spans the fields of neuroscience and psychology, with significant contributions to cognitive neuroscience and social psychology.

Their research output includes studies centered on neuroendocrine regulation and behavior, face recognition and perception, and Williams syndrome research. Other topics covered in their research include visual perception and processing mechanisms, tactile and sensory interactions, EEG and brain-computer interfaces, and the neuroscience of respiration and sleep.

Angela Sirigu's recent publications include the following papers:

Differential fate between oxytocin and vasopressin cells in the developing mouse brain, 2021, published in iScience
Oxytocin as a potential defence against Covid-19?, 2020, published in Medical Hypotheses
An Association Between Serotonin 1A Receptor, Gray Matter Volume, and Sociability in Healthy Subjects and in Autism Spectrum Disorder, 2020, published in Autism Research
An optimized iDISCO+ protocol for tissue clearing and 3D analysis of oxytocin and vasopressin cell network in the developing mouse brain, 2023, published in STAR Protocols
Territorial blueprint in the hippocampal system, 2021, published in Trends in Cognitive Sciences

The scientist frequently publishes in several venues including:

Cortex
bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory)
