 This year, the INC DAY was dedicated to Sensorimotor learning, which is fundamental for exploring and perceiving the world and behaving appropriately in it. The focus was put on Locomotion, Vision, and Speech, a session being devoted to each of these aspects of procedural learning.

As of custom this international and multidisciplinary scientific has been organized in partnership with three Masters programs:  Biologie Cellulaire, Physiologie et Pathologies, BioMedical Engineering-Paris and Psychologie Cognitive Fondamentale et Appliquée.’
