Research and Scholarship Interests (Funded Activity/Other Research and Scholarly Activity)
As a clinical neuroscientist, my research aims at understanding the neural mechanisms underlying movement control and learning across the lifespan and in persons with movement disorders arising from nervous system pathologies. We then use these discoveries to translate them into innovative and meaningful interventions and rehabilitation paradigms.
