DESCRIPTION:Paul Vaucher\nWhen trying to explain complex links explaining 
 human behaviour\, science often needs to find a balance between experiment
 al control and fidelity to real life situations. This is best achieved by 
 studying a problem through its multiple facets and relying on transversal 
 research. For instance\, by investigating behavioural age-related changes 
 relying on psychophysics and epidemiology. In this optic\, the laboratory 
 of psychophysics (EPFL) and the unit of traffic medicine and psychology (U
 NIL/UNIGE) joined forces to study effects of aging on early visual-cortica
 l processing and driving performance due to current lack of systematic tra
 nsversal research in this area. This presentation illustrates preliminary 
 results of this collaboration\, and hopes to encourage others to explore s
 imilar opportunities.
