New team member ! Dr David Achanccaray joined our team as a post-doctoral fellow funded by the EPIIC project (ANR funding).
Amazing events took place earlier this year with the Neuroergonomics Conference 2024 held in Bordeaux, July 8-12, the CORTICO days 2024 held in Nancy, May 24-25, and the PhD defense of Mr Marcel F. Hinss on the 26th of September 2024, co-supervision with Dr Anke Brock (ENAC), and the PhD defense of Ms Maëlis Lefebvre on the 29th of November 2024, co-supervision with Dr Vsevolod Peysakhovich (ISAE-SUPAERO), ESA & CNES funding.
Joined the French Long Covid association ApresJ20 as a member of the scientific watch. Open to collaborations on this topic.
Recently promoted to Full Professor ! Thank you to all the people who made it possible, the students, the colleagues and my family, who all put up with me on a daily basis.
Had a nice time during my (too) short stay at TU Delft in the TU Delft Robotics Institute, welcomed by Dr Chris Verhoeven & Pr David Abbink, Aug. 2023.
