About
Biography
My lab applies a design-thinking approach to research and development of motor learning interventions, such as locomotor training and interactive neurotechnology. Our optimal goal is to extend the ceiling of recovery for individuals with neuromotor deficits. Toward this end, we apply biomechanical quantification techniques to investigate best practices for applying creative paradigms and emerging technologies—from arts, gaming, or other disciplines traditionally categorized in the creative sector—to improve human recovery and health.
