Our group conducts neuroscience and neuroengineering research to better understand how the brain controls movement, and to design medical systems to assist those with movement disabilities.
Our neuroscience (systems and cognitive neuroscience) research investigates the neural basis of movement preparation and generation using a combination of electrophysiological (single-electrode and chronic electrode-array recordings), behavioral, computational and theoretical techniques. For example, how do neurons in cerebral cortex (e.g., PMd & M1) plan and guide reaching arm movements?
