Our three faculty in the area of Motor Control, Drs. Jaric, Getchel and Knight, each have different approaches to the study of the learning and control of human movement. The combined research interests represent Motor Control and Learning across the lifespan, in health and disease, and across the different hierarchichal levels of observation from motor neuron to behavior.
