Vincent joined the lab as a MS BME student in 2006. Vincent received his undergraduate training in Physics and Mathematics in the École Polytechnique of Montreal, and then at the École Polytechnique of Paris. Vincent’s work focused on using principles of optimal control to quantify changes in human saccade trajectories during adaptation. He subsequently became a project manager at Siemens MRI in Japan. He was recently accepted into the MBA program at INSEAD in Singapore and will start graduate school in fall of 2012. The results of his research at our lab were published in the following works: Changes in control of saccades during gain adaptation. V Ethier, DS Zee, and R Shadmehr (2008) Journal of Neuroscience 28:13929-13937. Abstract Spontaneous recovery of motor memory during saccade adaptation. V Ethier, DS Zee, and R Shadmehr (2008) Journal of Neurophysiology 99:2577-2583.  Abstract Adaptive control of saccades via internal feedback. H Chen-Harris, WM Joiner, V Ethier, DS Zee, and R Shadmehr (2008) Journal of Neuroscience 28:2804-2813.  Abstract Supplementary-material JNS-JournalClub Adaptive control of saccades in humans.
