Robotics Lab
The Robotics Lab's research is aimed at understanding the sensory-motor system through close interaction with artificial systems & how the brain executes motor behaviors.
Lab
The ARMS Lab
We use biomechanics as a framework for investigating how we move and control our arms and hands following injuries and impairments.
Lab
Neuromuscular Control Lab
Our lab is focused on the mechanisms underlying the multijoint control of movement and posture in able-bodied individuals and in individuals with neuromotor pathologies. Specifically, we are interested in understanding the relative contributions of intrinsic muscle properties, limb geometry and neural activation in the control of whole limb function.
Lab
Translational Biomedicine Lab
Our research group specializes in utilizing techniques from molecular and cell biology, genetics, and various experimental models. Our focus is on identifying new biomarkers and potential molecules to support rehabilitation in patients with neurological and neuromuscular conditions.
Lab
Muscle Physiology Lab
We investigate muscle fiber and tendon properties in neurological impairments and sports-related injuries.
Lab
Tresch Neuromechanics Lab
We study the strategies underlying the neural control of movement, examining how neural control interacts with the mechanical properties of the body.
Lab
Hand Rehabilitation Lab
The primary goal our research is to develop new techniques and devices to facilitate functional use of the hand after stroke. Toward this end we are investigating the underlying sensorimotor control of the hand, the changes that occur after stroke, and the factors that influence rehabilitation.
Lab
Pediatric Muscle Physiology Lab
We study muscle stem cells in impaired musculoskeletal growth and muscle metabolism in children with cerebral palsy.
Lab
Rehabilitation Neurology Motor Priming Lab
Our lab investigates and promotes various methods of neural priming for neurorehabilitation in individuals with severe upper limb hemiparesis.
Lab
Translational Cancer Rehabilitation Lab
Our lab studies the physiologic mechanisms that lead to change in physical or cognitive function for patients with cancer. In particular, we are currently focused on cachexia syndrome, a muscle wasting disorder that affects a majority of patients with cancer, along with many other chronic disease.
Lab
Limb Motor Control Lab
We are working to understand the nature of the somatosensory and motor signals within the brain that control our movements.
