Rachid Deriche, lauréat 2016 de l’appel ERC Advanced Grant

European Research Council 2016 : Rachid Deriche, directeur de recherche de classe exceptionnelle à Inria Sophia Antipolis – Méditerranée, responsable de l’équipe-projet ATHENA vient de recevoir la bourse européenne European Research Council dans la catégorie Advanced pour le projet CoBCoM à la frontière entre les mathématiques, l’informatique et la neuro-imagerie.

Les Bourses ERC Advanced Grant sont allouées dans le cadre du pilier “Excellence Scientifique” du programme Horizon 2020 de l’Union Européenne pour la recherche et l’innovation et sont attribuées à des chercheurs seniors, reconnus comme leaders dans leur domaine et qui proposent un projet de recherche visant à faire avancer notablement les frontières actuelles de la Science.

Maureen Clerc exposed : Brain-Computer Interfaces at Learning Centre Campus SophiaTech

Techno Cafe: Title: Brain-Computer Interfaces

Summary:
Interfacing his brain to a computer, it’s possible.
Maureen Clerc explains how brain activity can be transformed into orders.
This will be illustrated by a real experience of a virtual keyboard based on the P300.
