Biographie

Danilo Bzdok est informaticien et médecin de formation. Il possède une double formation unique en neurosciences systémiques et en algorithmes d'apprentissage automatique. Après une formation à l'Université d'Aix-la-Chapelle (RWTH) (Allemagne), à l'Université de Lausanne (Suisse) et à la Harvard Medical School (États-Unis), il a obtenu un doctorat en neurosciences du Centre de recherche de Jülich (Allemagne) et un doctorat en informatique dans le domaine des statistiques d'apprentissage automatique à l'INRIA Saclay et à NeuroSpin (Paris, France). Il est actuellement professeur agrégé à la Faculté de médecine de l'Université McGill et titulaire d’une chaire en IA Canada-CIFAR à Mila – Institut québécois d'intelligence artificielle. Son activité de recherche interdisciplinaire est centrée sur la réduction des lacunes dans la connaissance des bases cérébrales des types de pensée qui définissent l'être humain, afin de découvrir les principes clés de conception computationnelle qui sous-tendent l'intelligence humaine.

For over a century, brain research narrative has mainly centered on neuron cells. Accordingly, most neurodegenerative studies focus on neuro… (voir plus)nal dysfunction and their selective vulnerability, while we lack comprehensive analyses of other major cell types’ contribution. By unifying spatial gene expression, structural MRI, and cell deconvolution, here we describe how the human brain distribution of canonical cell types extensively predicts tissue damage in thirteen neurodegenerative conditions, including early-and late-onset Alzheimer’s disease, Parkinson’s disease, dementia with Lewy bodies, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, mutations in presenilin-1, and three clinical variants of frontotemporal lobar degeneration (behavioural variant, semantic and non-fluent primary progressive aphasia) along with associated 3-repeat and 4-repeat tauopathies and TDP43 proteinopathies types A and C. We reconstructed comprehensive whole-brain reference maps of cellular abundance for six major cell types and identified characteristic axes of spatial overlapping with atrophy. Our results support the strong mediating role of non-neuronal cells, primarily microglia and astrocytes, in spatial vulnerability to tissue loss in neurodegeneration, with distinct and shared across-disorders pathomechanisms. These observations provide critical insights into the multicellular pathophysiology underlying spatiotemporal advance in neurodegeneration. Notably, they also emphasize the need to exceed the current neuro-centric view of brain diseases, supporting the imperative for cell-specific therapeutic targets in neurodegeneration.
