Vortrag
Scientists Meet Scientists – Wednesday Coffee Talk by Prof. Gordon Cheng on the Walk Again project, which led to a paralyzed person kicking the World Cup’s first ball
Wednesday 30.07.2014, 13:00
Speaker
Prof. Gordon Cheng
Prof. Gerhard Abstreiter and the TUM-IAS team invite the scientists of TUM and their guests for coffee each Wednesday! Just come over to the TUM-IAS after lunch between 1:00 - 2:00 p.m. and have a coffee with us, meet other scientists and listen from time to time to a short talk (10-15 mins) on a recent major TUM publication or issue – aimed specifically at a non-expert audience.
On July 30, 2014, at 13:15, Prof. Gordon Cheng (Cognitive Systems) will explain how it was possible for a paralyzed person to kick the World Cup 2014’s first ball – with the help of a brain-controlled exoskeleton (TUM press release).
We look forward to seeing you there!
Please note that this is our last Wednesday Coffee Talk for the summer semester. There will be no talks in August (but we will still be serving coffee!). Talks will resume at the end of September.
