Early life and Education

[edit]

Picard was born near Montreal, Québec, Canada.[11] He received a B.Sc. with honors in Physiology from McGill University in 2007, where he conducted undergraduate research in neuroimmunology under the supervision of Julie Desbarats.[11] He completed a Ph.D. at McGill in 2012 in Mitochondrial Biology of Aging, under the mentorship of Tanja Taivassalo and Russell Hepple, focusing on mitochondrial biology in skeletal muscle during aging and disease.[11] During this time, he also completed two CIHR-funded fellowships in systems biology (computational biology) and psychosocial oncology.[11]

In 2009, Picard graduated from a three-year program in holistic health at the Montreal Institute of Classical Homeopathy (MICH). He pursued additional training in India, Toronto, and New York and maintained a part-time clinical practice from 2009 to 2012.[11]

From 2012 to 2015, he completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania’s and the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia's Center for Mitochondrial and Epigenomic Medicine, where he worked on mitochondrial genetics, epigenetics, and stress signaling under Douglas C Wallace,[12] while also advised by neuroscientist Bruce S McEwen at The Rockefeller University.[13]

Academic career

[edit]

Picard joined Columbia University in 2015 as an Assistant Professor of Behavioral Medicine, was promoted to Associate Professor in 2019, and to Professor in 2024.[14] He also holds research appointments at the New York State Psychiatric Institute and the Research Foundation for Mental Hygiene.[15] From 2015 to 2020, he was a visiting scientist at the Wellcome Centre for Mitochondrial Research in Newcastle Upon Tyne, UK where he worked closely with Sir Doug Turnbull.[16]

His laboratory, based at the Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, initially focused on mitochondrial signaling and its role in cellular aging, stress responses, and mental health.[17] He co-directs the Columbia Science of Health Program, an initiative aimed at understanding health across biological, psychological, and functional dimensions.[18] Since 2016, at the Columbia Neurological Institute, he has also followed patients with mitochondrial diseases under the mentorship of neuromuscular neurologist Michio Hirano, MD. [19]

In 2018, his research group was renamed the Mitochondrial Psychobiology Lab, reflecting a shift toward studying the interaction between psychological processes and mitochondrial biology.[20] He has described this emerging field as Mitochondrial Psychobiology, a term introduced in a 2019 publication.[21] In 2024, with behavioral neuroscientist Carmen Sandi, Picard co-organized the inaugural Banbury Meeting on Mitochondrial Psychobiology.[22]

Research Contributions

[edit]

Picard's research spans cellular imaging, mitochondrial bioenergetics, cellular aging biology, clinical and psychosocial sciences.

Mind-mitochondria connection

Picard contributed to early evidence that physiological stress responses stress in mice may be regulated by mitochondrial biology.[23] He developed the NIH-funded Mitochondrial Stress, Brain Imaging, and Epigenetics (MiSBIE) study to investigate how variations in mitochondria affect stress response and the human mind. [24] Related studies from his laboratory demonstrated that brief mental stress can lead to mitochondrial DNA release into the bloodstream[25] and saliva.[26][27] An initial hypothesis proposed that this mtDNA release served as a pro-inflammatory signal,[28] but later studies challenged this interpretation, suggesting potential links to mitochondrial transfer mechanisms.[29][30][31][32]

Hallmarks of Psychobiology [33]

In 2018, Picard co-authored a study with psychologist Elissa S Epel examining the Mitochondrial Health Index (MHI) in immune cells, which reported a positive mood-to-mitochondrial energy transformation capacity over time periods of days.[34] Subsequent work by Caroline Trumpff and colleagues reported that brain mitochondrial proteomic profiles and single-cell gene expression patterns (scRNAseq) were associated with psychosocial exposures reported before death.[35][36] The authors proposed that mitochondrial biology and psychological experiences are bidirectionally related or influenced by shared underlying factors, and proposed a conceptual framework called the Hallmarks of Psychobiology.[37][38]

Energetics and reversibility of aging

As part of his doctoral research, Picard investigated skeletal muscle–specific changes in mitochondrial biology with aging, reporting that mitochondrial decline is not a universal feature of aging, that it varies by muscle,[39] and that the experimental methods used to examine this question can alter conclusions.[40][41][42] Subsequently, the Cellular Lifespan Study[43] developed by Gabriel Sturm in his laboratory examined longitudinal molecular and energetic aspects of cellular aging[44], reporting that senescence is associated with an increase in energy demand, or hypermetabolism.[45] Picard’s team also reported the presence of nuclear mitochondrial DNA insertions (NUMTs) in aging cultured human cells and in the human brain, which their research found to be associated with early mortality.[46][47][48]

Using the cellular lifespan system[49], Picard’s group reported that mitochondrial defects were associated with hypermetabolism and cellular aging, as indicated by markers such as telomere shortening, epigenetic clocks, gene expression profiles, and the Hayflick limit.[50] Along with clinical evidence in patients with mitochondrial diseases[50] these findings led to the hypermetabolic theory of mitochondrial diseases, which suggests that mitochondrial OxPhos defects do not decrease but rather increase the overall cellular energy expenditure, forcing energy tradeoffs that drive symptoms.[51]

In 2021, using hair greying as a model to examine heterogeneity and the dynamics of the aging process, Picard’s team published findings suggesting that human hair greying is transiently reversible and linked to life stress.[52][53][54] They developed the Hair Pigmentation Pattern (HPP) method, which was used to examine associations between psychological stress, mitochondrial biology, and changes in hair pigmentation.[55] To bridge molecular and cellular hallmarks of aging with clinical phenotypes, Picard proposed the Brain-body Energy Conservation (BEC) model of aging[45], which frames aging as a process influenced by energy regulation and tradeoffs where the brain coordinates systemic energy allocation.[56]

Holistic view of mitochondria

Drawing from parallels with bacterial behavior[57] and other work, Picard has described mitochondria as signal processing organelles involved in cellular communication processes.[58][59] In 2015, he reported the intermitochondrial structural alignment of cristae in mouse heart tissue[60]. He later described the presence of mitochondrial nanotunnels in human cells.[61] Picard also described social behaviors of mitochondria, including communication, specialization, division of labor, coordination, among others, outlining a picture of mitochondria as organelles with the foreshadowing signs of our own sociality.[62][5] With cell biologist Tim Shutt, he also proposed a conceptual analogy referring to mitochondria as a chief executive organelle (CEO) of the cell.[63][64]

Electron microscopy work from Picard’s laboratory[66][67] and other research groups[68][69][70] has identified profound structural diversity among mitochondria from different organs and cell types, as well as within individual cells, referred to as mitotypes.[71] Picard has argued for more specific language around mitochondrial science.[72] In 2023, he developed the first systematic nomenclature system of cell-dependent mitochondrial properties, mitochondrial features, activities, functions, and behaviors, moving the field beyond binary classifications of function and dysfunction.[73]

Brain bioenergetics

The first-generation Mitochondrial Health Index (MHI)[74] and second-generation Mitochondrial Respiratory Capacity (MRC)[75][76], developed in Picard’s laboratory, were designed to assess mitochondrial energetics in brain tissues. Using these methods, Picard’s laboratory mapped the distribution of brain mitochondria and their associations with anxiety-like behaviors in mice.[77][78][79] They also developed Human MitoBrainMap v1.0, a systematic map of mitochondrial biology across the human brain[75][76] intended to support research on the relationship between mitochondrial biology, brain activity, and behavior.[80][81]

Transdisciplinary science and human health

Picard has proposed a transdisciplinary framework for understanding health[83][84] emphasizing the role of subjective experiences such as self-rated health in assessing well-being.[85] He has suggested that mitochondria may function at the intersection of biological and psychosocial processes.[86][87] He described their topological and functional positioning of mitochondria as a potential transducer of physiological signals related to health and aging.[88][89]

In published work and interviews, Picard has discussed the historical focus of biomedical research on disease over health,[90][91][92][93] and proposed an alternative framework integrating concepts of energy, communication, and structure as a path to create a more accurate, actionable framework in human health.[90][91] In 2025, with Alan Cohen and investigators at the Columbia Science of Health Program, drawing analogies to field physics Picard introduced a theoretical model describing health as a "field-like-state."[94] According to this view, health may not be directly observable, but could be inferred through its effects on various biological and psychological systems.[94][95]

Assay development in mitochondrial science

Picard’s early research included the development of laboratory assays to measure live mitochondrial functions in small human skeletal muscle biopsy samples[96][97]. These methods were applied to study the nature of mitochondrial recalibrations in COPD muscle[98] and to conduct a comparative analysis of two commonly used techniques in mitochondrial science: isolated mitochondria and permeabilized myofibers. The study reported fuctional differences between these preparations[99] and examined their implications for the study of skeletal muscle mitochondrial aging[100]. Picard also implemented quantitative microscopy techniques to profile mitochondrial morphology and network reorganization[101], applying them to muscle[102][103] and brain cells.[104] Using a combination of biochemical and imaging methods, Picard identified the origin of heteroplasmic mitochondrial DNA deletions in aging skeletal muscle.[105][106]

Mitochondrial allostatic load (MAL)

In 2014, Picard proposed the concept of Mitochondrial Allostatic Load (MAL)[107], expanding the framework of allostatic load by Bruce S. McEwen and Elliot Stellar.[108] His research has explained how psychological stress may influence mitochondrial biology in animal models, human studies, and population-level data.[109][110] Picard has also discussed limitations in the interpretation of mitochondrial biomarkers, such as mitochondrial DNA copy number,[111] and explored the metabolic demands associated with the stress response.[112] One study from his group estimated a 60% increase in cellular energy expenditure in response to glucocorticoid stress.[113] This led to the proposed Energetic Model of Allostatic Load (EMAL), which proposes that chronic stress is damaging because it forces the disallocation of energy towards stress response processes, away from growth, maintenance, and repair processes, leading to damage accumulation.[114][115]

In a separate survey-based study, Picard and collaborators also reported on mitochondrial disease patients' beliefs around the link between mood and symptom severity.[116]

These studies contributed to a broader body of work proposing mitochondria as mediators between metabolic and psychological processes.
