What is currently going on in the TReND Doctoral Network?

Victoria Trifonova is DC03 and started her research project on 01.10.2024 at the Aix-Marseille University. She inverstigates the question: "Can the structure of behavioural and physiological variability predict training outcomes? - multidimensional assessment and intervention in older adults". We wish her all the best!

We start the new year by introducing Sofía Avila Pérez, DC02, who is interested in the intriguing question, "Can superimposed sensorimotor variability in practice enhance motor (observational) learning in older adults?" We wish Sofía all the best in her research!

 

Today we want to introduce Ajša Džindo. Ajša (DC09) will investigate “Neural mechanisms underlying functional neurological movements disorders”. We wish her a successful and educational time!


 

The next doctoral candidate we want to present is Constanze Dammeyer.
In PhD project 12 , Constanze is working on the topic "State estimation and dealing with noise and uncertainty".
We wish Constanze lots of success and fun during her work and look forward to the first results!

Since 01.09.2024 our PhD students started their research projects.
Today we want to present you Lea Obrecht.
In PhD project 06, Lea is working on the topic "Translation of fundamental research into practical fields – integrating the perspective of clinicians and patients in the process using the example of childhood motor disorders."
We wish Lea lots of success and fun during her work and look forward to the first results!

From 29th to 30th October, the TReND Kick-Off Camp took place at the University of Münster.
We are happy to have had a successful and productive official start of the doctoral training programme with the TReND fellows and their supervisors.  Of the twelve TReND fellows, seven fellows came to Münster with their supervisor(s), while three participated remotely. The kick-off camp was used to work on a theoretical framework for the research of the TReND consortium, but also for getting to know each other and growing as a consortium, which everyone really enjoyed!
 

We are pleased to inform you that there is still the chance to apply for the following research project:
"Can the structure of behavioural and physiological variability predict physical training outcomes? – multidimensional assessment and intervention in stroke patients"
The project will be supervised by Dr. Rita Sleimen-Malkoun and Prof. Dr. Jean-Jacques Temprado at Aix-Marseille University.

Update: The application deadline has expired.

We are currently in the middle of recruiting twelve doctoral candidates (DCs) for TReND. To join TReND you need to apply directly at the host institution. You can find a list of all open Ph.D. positions here.

TReND will provide a structured training program for all DCs. This will enable them to perform seminal research in the field of neuromotor control and learning and to translate their research results into practice to innovate the clinical sector.

The MSCA Doctoral Network TReND has successfully commenced its activities with a virtual kick-off meeting on March 6th hosted by the coordinators at the University of Münster.  You can find out more about all involved researchers and partners here.
