About this demo-conference

[In French]

Which research approaches would be most appropriate to help improve the situation for patients with spinal cord injuries sustained in accidents? Serge Rossignol provided us with an impressive overview of imaging technologies and the applications that enable researchers and medical specialists to objectively observe and document changes during recovery.

“Visual inputs to the locomotive control are extremely powerful and we rely extensively on these techniques to improve the effectiveness of locomotive therapies.”

Serge Rossignol – Full Professor, Center for Research in Neurological Sciences, Department of Physiology, Université de Montréal
