Doubling the medal count is no small challenge. With the French Ministry of Sports having set an ambitious target of 80 medals out of the 1,600 up for grabs at Paris 2024, the stakes are high!<\/p>\n
The exhibition \u201cScience for medals\u201d, organized at the French Institute of Finland from April 22 to May 3, showcases these stakes. It reveals an unprecedented collaboration between hundreds of researchers in physiology, neuroscience, materials engineering, physics, mathematics, and various sports federations. Their collective aim? To fine-tune every aspect of athletic performance from personalized training regimes and injury prevention to equipment enhancement and mental preparation. In a setting where races are won or lost by the slightest fraction of a second, detail remains the key!<\/p>\n
Since 2018, France has invested in preparing the athletes for the Olympic Games like never before.<\/p>\n
Whether it\u2019s about advanced sensor-driven data collection, cutting-edge materials, physiological and biomechanical analyses or innovative training methodologies, the country is at the forefront of sports innovation.<\/p>\n
This exhibition, organized in French, is free of charge and welcomes visitors during the operating hours of the French Institute of Finland. It has been conceived by la Cit\u00e9 des sciences et de l\u2019Industrie, (Universcience).<\/p>\n
The theme of science at the service of sport will also be developed in greater detail on June 13 in Helsinki at a conference by Ga\u00ebl Guilhem, Laboratory Director at the French Institute for Sport, Expertise and Performance (Insep).
