Simon Thibault, PhD student at IMPACT CRNL, supervised by Claudio Brozzoli (IMPACT CRNL) and Alice Roy (DDL), in collaboration with Véronique Boulenger (DDL), received this year's Society for Neural Control of Movement (NCM) award.
At the conference organised by NCM, Simon presented some of the results of his thesis project: through behavioural and functional neuroimaging studies, Simon investigated the links between language syntax and tool use, testing the hypothesis that a common function serves both skills.
