PROFIL
Physiologie du système neuromusculaire et biomécanique en relation avec l’exercice musculaire et plus particulièrement l’entraînement physique chez le sportif compétiteur.
| 2002 | Doctorat de l’université de Bourgogne |
| 2014 | Habilitation à diriger des recherches |
Mes activités de recherche s’intéressent de manière générale à l’exercice musculaire et à l’entraînement au regard de la physiologie du système neuromusculaire. Différentes thématiques sont plus particulièrement développées :
- Explorer les effets aigus des étirements sur le système neuromusculaire. Différentes caractéristiques des étirements sont explorées (durée d’étirement, étirement statiques, étirements dynamiques, étirements neurodynamiques, étirements isolés ou combinés avec des exercices de différents types…). Ces études utilisent des techniques d’exploration de l’architecture musculo-tendineuse ou d’évaluation de la commande au niveau cortical, spinal ou musculaire.
- Explorer les effets de l’électrostimulation. Cette technique a été étudiée sur le sujet sain et sportif en tant que méthode d’entraînement ou de récupération. De plus, des études ont été menées pour explorer l’utilité de l’électrostimulation en tant qu’outil diagnostique et de rééducation notamment dans des unités de soins intensifs chez des patients polytraumatisés.
- Déterminer les critères de performance dans différents sports (rugby, football, équitation, cyclisme…) et explorer les effets notamment des entraînement combinés (force/endurance) sur la performance physique mais également sur les adaptations neuromusculaires ou même biologiques.
Dans le cadre de mes activités de recherche au sein de la plateforme technologique Centre d’Expertise de la Performance (CEP), d’autres activité de recherche en lien avec des entreprises via des activités de consulting R&D sont régulièrement réalisées. Différents thèmes ont été étudiés comme : des compléments alimentaires (protéines, polyphénols…), des chaussures, des exosquelettes, des tissus intelligents, de la réalité augmentée…
