The human sensorimotor control system has exceptional abilities to perform skillful actions.
We easily switch between strenuous tasks that involve brute force, such as lifting a heavy …

It is unclear how the variability of kinematic errors experienced during motor training affects
skill retention and motivation. We used force fields produced by a haptic robot to modulate …

Learning new movement patterns is a normal part of daily life, but of critical importance in
both sport and rehabilitation. A major question is how different sensory signals are …

Voluntary movements are prepared before they are executed. Preparatory activity has been
observed across the CNS and recently documented in first-order neurons of the human PNS …

The healthy human nervous system accurately and robustly controls movements despite
nonlinear dynamics, noise, and delays. After a stroke, motor ability frequently becomes …

We examine the visual influence of stabilization in human sensorimotor control using a
simulated inverted pendulum. As the inverted pendulum is fully simulated, we are able to …

Current musculoskeletal modeling approaches cannot account for variability in muscle
activation patterns seen across individuals, who may differ in motor experience, motor …
