4th Internal EPFL Symposium on Modeling Sensorimotor Function

At EPFL, different groups carry out experimental and theoretical research related to sensorimotor function. This symposium is an opportunity for EPFL labs studying the sensorimotor system to share their latest research, in an attempt to promote collaborations and stimulate new research ideas. We hope to organize multiple iterations in the future!
