Description du projet
Une formation par la recherche pour repenser la rééducation
L’interaction entre les quatre niveaux du cycle de perception-action (cerveau, muscles et articulations, agent-environnement et aspect social) est passée au peigne fin. Le projet REPAIRS, financé par l’UE, s’appuiera sur des connaissances fondamentales des systèmes concernant l’apprentissage des couplages perception-action afin de construire des applications pour la rééducation. En employant les progrès technologiques les plus récents, le projet établira une école de formation par la recherche, unique et opportune, visant à améliorer l’efficacité de la rééducation. Les résultats profiteront à la recherche sur les troubles du mouvement liés à la perception et à l’action (comme les accidents vasculaires cérébraux), qui affectent considérablement la réalisation des tâches quotidiennes. L’approche des systèmes prendra en compte les interactions non linéaires entre les composants. Ainsi, elle peut expliquer pourquoi les patients ne répondent pas de manière stéréotypée à la rééducation.
Objectif
Movement disorders related to perception and action, such as stroke, significantly impair functioning in daily living, severely impacting the life of affected individuals and having a huge economic impact. Although rehabilitation practice aims to restore functional ability through re-learning perception-action couplings, it leads to marginal improvements of daily functioning at best. Here it is argued that to improve effectiveness of rehabilitation a systems approach should be adopted to understand processes underlying perception-action disorders. A systems approach takes into account nonlinear interactions between components, enabling to explain for instance why patients do not respond stereotypical to rehabilitation training. REPAIRS (RE-learning Perception-Action In Rehabilitation from a Systems perspective) is a unique and timely training-through-research school, aiming to improve rehabilitation effectiveness. REPAIRS starts from systems-based fundamental knowledge on learning perception-action couplings to build applications to rehabilitation, while exploiting recent technology advancements. This research school provides the required critical mass of top-level researchers connecting European academic, clinical and technology experts to train the next generation of researchers and entrepreneurs in this perspective. REPAIRS studies interaction between four levels of the perception-action cycle: brain, muscles & joints, agent-environment and social, which is integrated with requirements on translation from clinical, technology and philosophical domains. The focus on interactions between levels and domains naturally ensures an interdisciplinary and intersectoral training. Integrating this with a high-level training of transferrable skills, dissemination and communication while exploiting an Experiential Skill Learning Workshop, will boost the employability of the young researchers involved and the innovation potential of Europe through reshaping rehabilitation.
