[apologies in case of multiple copies]

Dear Colleagues and Friends,

It is with a great sadness that we heard that Professor Jean-Marie Cabelguen passed away on January 30, 2018 after battling cancer. He passed away peacefully surrounded by his family.  As a researcher and lecturer in neurophysiology, he made profound contributions towards understanding the neural circuits underlying locomotion in vertebrate animals. A warm and passionate person, Jean-Marie was greatly appreciated by the scientific community to which he belonged.

We created a website https://biorob2.epfl.ch/pages/cabelguen/     to allow his colleagues and friends to share some thoughts and memories about him. If you would like to do so, please write your messages (short or long, in any language) as an email to inmemoriam.jmc@epfl.ch, and they will be posted here. Thank you.

Best wishes,

Auke Ijspeert, Vanessa Charrier, Dimitri Ryczko, Alessandro Crespi
