==Launching the Cyprus Neuroscience & Technology Institute==

The [[Cyprus Neuroscience and Technology Institute]] was launched following an international symposium co-organized by Uwe Windhorst, [[Jestus Meyer-Lohman]], [[Hans-Dietrich Henatsch]]<ref>[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Diedrich_Henatsch Hans-Dietrich Henatsch page in Wikipedia]</ref>, and [[Yiannis Laouris]] in 1988. The [[Symposium Perspectives in Motor Control]] aimed to bring together a small number (25) of international experts in the field of [[Motor Control]] to discuss hot issues in the field. The symposium was supported by the president of Cyprus, Mr. Spyros Kyprianou (provided CY pounds 10,000), the Cyprus Airways (provided 10 tickets), business entrepreneur and developer Mr. Michael Leptos (provided dinners) and the Bishop of Paphos Chrysostomos (provided Gala Dinner). The symposium was so successful that the key organizers, and especially Uwe Windhorst, [[Douglas Stuart]] and [[Yiannis Laouris]], strategized and supported the founding of a research institution in Cyprus with the name [[Cyprus Neuroscience and Technology Institute]].
