Position: Alumni

Research Motor preparation/motor learning

Year: 2006

During both my Masters and PhD degrees, my main area of research involved the examination of motor learning and skill acquisition. While my Masters degree focused on what conditions of practice and feedback
maximize learning, my PhD examined how adults learn new movements by studying changes to brain and muscle patterns during physical practice, observation and imagery.
