Research combined with parasports can improve performance

Posted in June 6, 2019

The Knowledge Science framework TVU News addressed a very present issue in the scientific work of Edmond and Lily Safra International Institute of Neuroscience (IIN-ELS): translational research, which goes from primary studies, the so-called basic research, to practical application in people's reality.

In the report, broadcast on the University TV of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), it is possible to see how a bocce para-athlete inspired some of our master's students in neuroengineering and scientific initiation students. They developed neurotechnology with virtual reality to improve performance in para-sports.

It's the science for social transformation!
