Objectives

The goal of this master degree is to train physicians (particularly those specialized in PMR), paramedics (physiotherapist, occupational therapist, speech therapist, podiatrists, psychomotor therapist, nurses), students from biology, sports sciences to research in the field of neurological impairment. During this training, all the fields of applied research on neurological disabilities are presented, from clinical research to translational research and research in physiology and physiopathology.
At the end of this training, 3 professional skills will be acquired:
- A clinical skill through the teaching of the standard management of the various pathologies encountered in the field of neurological disability.
- A research skill through theoretical and practical teaching (internship research laboratory ) provided during the Master’s course.
- A managerial skill: organisation of research projects in the field of neurological disability.
