Laboratory for Functional Anatomy (LAF)

Faculty of Motor Skills Sciences | Research Centers

(Code: ULB390)

The Laboratory for Functional Anatomy (LAF) is a research group dedicated to human and animal anatomy and embryology.  
The LAF works in close collaboration with the Laboratory of Anatomy Biomechanics and Organogenesis (Faculty of Medicine), which benefits from the same
infrastructure. Several research themes are also developed jointly. 

Research in the LAF is structured around complementary themes:  
- biomechanics, modeling and functional assessment  
- macroscopic and microscopic anatomy 
- embryology and teratology  
- forensic medicine and forensic anthropology  
- HOX genes and ovarian function  
- neurobiomechanics
