The lab has a great showing at ASB 2017. Alaa presents in the Energetic Optimization Symposium organized by James Finley, alongside Max Donelan and Manoj Srinivisan. Erik presents two posters on 1) why we choose to walk vs run and 2) how reward increases vigor and reduces variability. Last, but...
The lab helps co-organize and host the 2017 annual meeting of the American Society of Biomechanics here at SMµ÷½ÌËù Boulder. We may be biased, but we had an amazing time connecting with biomechanists from around the world.
Alaa Ahmed presents at NCM in Dublin, as part of a panel session on ‘Error, energy, and reward: what drives sensorimotor adaptation?’. The panel was organized by Tim Carroll, and included presentations by Max Donelan, Joe Galea, and Li-Ann Leow.
Erik Summerside and Gary Bruening give podium presentations at the 7 th annual regional meeting of the Rocky Mountain American Society of Biomechanics . Good job team!
We have a new paper, in collaboration with Prof. Reza Shadmehr, on the role of effort in both our decisions and in controlling our movements. See our Publications page and let us know what you think!
On May 27, Alison Pienciak-Siewert successfully defended her Mechanical Engineering Ph.D. thesis, "Sensorimotor adaptation in whole-body postural control." Thanks to her committee members: Dr. Larry Carlson, Dr. Rodger Kram, Dr. Virginia Ferguson and Dr. Derek Reamon. And thanks to the audience for their excellent questions. Congratulations Dr. Aly!
