Research
The objective of Tactile Perception and Learning Lab is to study the algorithm that biology has devised to enable our neurons to make very precise tactile discrimination in a very short time, coding and processing the stimulus received. To achieve this goal, researchers analyze the different stages of the functioning of the brain, relating the neuron's activity to the animal behavior.
