personal story

Grenoble: a different way of life ? In France and particularly in Grenoble, one can find a lot of active associations that usually do not have a strong online presence, but are very active locally. These are sport, culture or teaching-directed associations. A good example is the “ptit velo dans la tête” organisation. This association is running bike repair workshops where the members can come and repair their bikes, and buy spare parts or full bikes at very reduced prices.

Three months in Delft, two open hardware projects

By Mik Schutte, Julien Colomb in progress report

July 28, 2023

Hardware in research My name is Mik Schutte. During my master thesis (2022), I was tasked with the rebuilding of a setup: the microstimulation setup. I got acquainted with the hardware surrounding experimental research. All hardware components together make the setup which, if functioning correctly allows for an experimental protocol to be carried out. However, as many experimenters can confirm, the road to a functional, personalized and ideal setup has many obstacles.
