Promoting Scientific Activities

Scientific events organisation

General chair, scientific chair

• R. Deriche is Adj. Director at the Doctoral School EDSTIC (Website: http://edstic.i3s.unice.fr/index.html )

• T. Papadopoulo (since september 2011) is the coordinator of the Master of Science in Computational Biology and Biomedicine from University of Nice Sophia Antipolis (Website: http://cbb.unice.fr ). The scientific goal of this program is to focus on the human being from different perspectives (understanding and modeling functional aspects or interpreting biomedical signals from various devices) and at different scales (from molecules to organs and the whole organism).

Leadership within the scientific community

The Inria Project-Lab BCI-LIFT was created in 2015, to foster the work of 8 Inria teams and 2 more teams outside Inria on Brain Computer Interfaces Learning, Interaction, Feedback and Training. It is coordinated by Maureen Clerc.

BCI-LIFT was responsible for setting up a Brain Computer Interface Challenge which attracted 260 participants. The results of the Challenge were presented at the IEEE EMBS Conference on Neural Engineering in Montpellier, April 2015.
