Description :


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

Morpho-functional characterization of the muscles involved in human respiration
This project quantifies the elements of geometric conformation of the rectus abdominis (rectus abdominis), sclenus (scalene) and
diaphragm muscles during functional changes related to respiration.
