Motor Control folks, it's still time to register and even submit an abstract for a poster !!
👇👇

Here it is: the exciting program for the upcoming symposium on motor control, in Paris, September 23-24! 😁

You can still register, present a poster, and come to interact with the French scientific community working on motor control in humans and other animals! 👇

📢A position of assistant professor (tenure) in developmental biology with a focus on IPSC/organoid technologies will soon be open to competition for a profile in neurodevelopment or development in my research team affiliated to Sorbonne University (good level in French and qualification required).

The lab is closed for the week, but nicely decorated! Happy holidays and see you in 2025!🎄🧑‍🎄☃️❄️

🎄✨ Last week we had two incredible days filled with inspiring talks, posters, and new connections. Thank you to everyone who joined us to celebrate our #ChristmasMeeting_IN.
See you next year! 🧠💫

Honored to have been part of this excellent Christmas Symposium.

Excited to be part of this Christmas Meeting, and looking forward to discover all the great people and research there!

Check this out!! Awesome discovery by the labs of Carmelo Bellardita in Copenhagen Univ and Simone di Giovanni in London on the physiological role of macrophages in muscle spindles on proprioceptor afferents - implication in sensorimotor control of movement

Jean-Didier Vincent has passed away.
He shaped the neurosciences life in the Saclay area at the end of the 20th century, as the head of the Institute of Neuroscience Albert Fessard in Gif-sur-Yvette, now NeuroPSI.
He will be remembered as a prominent thinker and writer.
