Over the last several years, our laboratory has investigated postflight astronaut locomotion
with the aim of better understanding how adaptive changes in underlying sensorimotor …

We have considerable knowledge about the mechanisms underlying compensation of Earth
gravity during locomotion, a knowledge obtained from physiological, biomechanical …

Recent evidence suggests that perceptual and cognitive functions are codetermined by
rhythmic bodily states. Prior investigations have focused on the cardiac and respiratory …

Walking is among our most frequent and natural of voluntary behaviours, yet the
consequences of locomotion upon perceptual and cognitive function remain largely …

Normal vision overrides perturbed vestibular information for the optimization of performance
during goal directed locomotion, suggesting down-regulation of vestibular gain. However, it …

Background and Purpose: Decreased walking speed after stroke may be related to changes
in temporal and distance gait factors, endurance, and balance. Functional gait deficits may …

The vestibular system is vital for maintaining balance and stabilizing gaze and vestibular
damage causes impaired postural and gaze control. Here we examined the effects of …

Achieved motor movement can be estimated using both sensory and motor signals. The
value of motor signals for estimating movement should depend critically on the stereotypy or …

Abstract Space flight causes astronauts to be exposed to adaptation in both the vestibular
and body load-sensing somatosensory systems. The goal of these studies was to examine …

Perception and action are coupled such that information from the perceptual system is
related to the dynamics of action in order to regulate behavior adaptively. Using running as a …
