C-STAR: Body Machine Interfaces: From Basic to Clinical Neuroscience and Back

Description: Learning is also our first line of defense after injuries affecting one's ability to generate and control movements. It gives us the ability of adapting to the new conditions and to recover functionality and independence. In this C-STAR on-demand webinar Dr. Mussa-Ivaldi presents the Body-Machine Interface as a low-cost technological platform linking the understanding of the mechanisms of motor learning to the development of new strategies for neurorehabilitation and assistance.

Instructor: Sandro Mussa-Ivaldi, PhD, Senior Research Scientist, Shirley Ryan AbilityLab; Professor, Department of Physiology, Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation, and Biomedical Engineering, Northwestern University McCormick School of Engineering

Targeted Audience: Researchers and clinicians interested in using technology to measure outcomes in a rehabilitation population
