nathalie vergnolle

Dr. Vergnolle is a research director at Inserm in Toulouse and holds an assistant professor position at the University of Calgary where she spent 10 years. Trained in pharmacology, Dr. Vergnolle works on gastrointestinal pathologies and has gained international recognition with his work on some of the mediators involved in inflammation and pain. More recently, she has studied the role of the intestinal epithelium in irritable bowel syndrome and the possible relationship between mediators derived from the epithelium and the activation of enteric neurons. Since 2016, Dr. Vergnolle has headed the new Institute for Research in Digestive Health (IRSD), a structure supported by Inserm, Inra, University Paul Sabatier-Toulouse III and the National Veterinary School of Toulouse.
