Comparative anatomy of the Achilles tendon 
This project, carried out in collaboration between LAF, LABO, the Swedish School of Sports and the Histology Laboratory, aims to
study the macroscopic and microscopic morphology of the human and primate Achilles tendon to clarify contradictions in the
literature concerning the twisting of fibers, the existence of sub-tendons and the preferential location of overload lesions within the
tendon. To this end, this study combines several in vivo and in vitro techniques to answer these questions, including classical
dissection and morphometry, stereophotogrammetry, histology and medical imaging.

Anatomy of the components involved in the thoraco-lumbar fascia, including the interfascial trigone: 
The aim of this research project is to characterize the microscopic anatomical, morphological and functional aspects of the
lumbar interfascial trigone belonging to the thoracolumbar fascia, in order to identify its potential clinical involvement in low back
pain. 
 
Macroscopic and microscopic analysis of hamstrings and their connective tissues:
The central objective of this research project is to characterize the anatomical variations of the hamstrings, in particular at
the level of connective tissue (tendon, paratenon and myotendinous junction), likely to influence the biomechanical behavior of
the IJs and thus constitute a risk factor in the development of muscle injuries.
