Grégoire Courtine

Grégoire Courtine is a neuroscientist who studies the nervous system, especially how the brain and spinal cord communicate. His research focuses on developing innovative ways to help people with spinal cord injuries regain movement and function. He explores advanced techniques like electrical stimulation and neural interfaces to reconnect disrupted pathways, aiming to restore mobility and independence. His work combines biology, engineering, and medicine to understand neuroplasticity—the brain and spinal cord's ability to adapt—and translate that knowledge into potential therapies for paralysis and neurological conditions.
