Sensory and Motor Neuroprostheses

Initially created around auditory prostheses (middle ear implant, cochlear implants, brainstem implant), this course aims to broaden its training field to sensory (visual implants) and motor (stimulators) neuroprostheses. This course offers in-depth training in the fields of neurostimulation, implantable prostheses, prosthetic adaptation, and sensory and motor functional exploration. This training responds to a need recognized by all the actors, physicians, neuroprosthetists, and nursing staff, in search of a solid training in the field of neuroprosthesis. Such training requires knowledge that cannot be acquired in only 3 years. The development of implantable prostheses and the specificity of the populations to which they are addressed require additional professional training at Master's level (Bac+5), which can lead to doctoral studies.
