Prof. Pratik Mutha Pratik Mutha from IIT Gandhinagar gave a very interesting talk in our lab meeting last week. He presented some recent studies from his lab exploring the role of sensory prediction error and task prediction error in visuomotor learning in young healthy individuals.

Master's student Manon Chauvaux successfully defended her thesis this month 🥳🎉 Her research involved studying the role of contralateral primary motor cortex in interlimb generalisation of newly learned motor skills. We wish her success for future endeavours!

🍻Some personal news! I have been awarded the 2024 Biaggi de Blasys award from LndsNeuro for my joint EPFL Neuro-X Institute and @UCLouvain_be PhD on reinforcement motor learning with Hummel Lab,DuqueLab and Gerard Derosiere Thank you so much!🤩 wp.unil.ch/lemanicneurosc…

Great PhD opportunity here!

Our journal club had the pleasure of hosting Manisha Biswas from Social Intelligence Lab for an enlightening talk! Her captivating work sparked engaging discussions and insights. A big thank you to Manisha for sharing her expertise and time with us!

Congratulations to Fanny Fievez, who successfully defended her PhD thesis titled “How urgency shapes motor behavior”. Her achievement is a testament to years of hard work, determination, and dedication. We wish all the best to Dr. Fievez for all her future endeavors. 👏

A little sad to draw a close to Control Processes 2024. But thank you all for the fantastic science, discussions and company. Safe travels back home and look forward to the next one in the Bay area!

Prof. Matthew Apps Roshan Cools' lab @OleJensenCHBH @smfleming Uni of Birmingham Tobias Egner The Centre for Human Brain Health KatjaKornysheva School of Psychology, University of Birmingham Thank you for organizing a great meeting, Matt!

Excited to announce I'm taking my talents to Brussels 🇧🇪! I'll be starting a post doc with DuqueLab next month investigating how the brain selects and prepares movement, thanks to a @UCLouvain_be Fonds Spécial de Recherche Mobility award!

More on reward, motor cortex, and motor learning! Here is our latest article on BioRxiv, exploring how extrinsic rewards impact motor plasticity during skill learning: biorxiv.org/content/10.110… A collaboration with Goldy Yadav, Pierre Vassiliadis, Hummel Lab and DuqueLab!

What better way to kick off the academic year than with a lab barbecue evening—filled with riveting conversations, amazing food, and an incredible group of people to share it with! 🔥🍖🎊
