🚨 I'm joining Rutgers' Neurosurgery (@RWJMS) and the Brain Health Institute (@BHI_Rutgers) as a Tenure-Track Assistant Professor this Fall! 🚨
My lab will use direct-brain recordings to study the neural computations weaving together human decisions, emotions, and memories.
In a new preprint, @ivryrich and I dive into the mechanism underlying attenuation upon relearning in sensorimotor adaptation.
TLDR: Interference. But you should read - there is a surprising twist 🙂...

Question: Does the relevance of visual feedback influence how we subconsciously correct for errors in our movement?
Answer: Yes!
In our paper in @JOCN_Journal, we showed that *implicit* motor adaptation is modulated by the relevance of visual feedback.

Tianhe has done great work on this project! It’s definitely worth taking a look.
Funny to think it all started from checking the calibration of our different visuomotor reaching rigs…
Where does the motor bias originate? In this new preprint with @tsay_jonathan@rmhead@ivrylab, we show motor biases arise from the transformation of eye-centered visual information (where is the target) into hand-centric proprioceptive space during motor planning.

🥳 Congrats to Dr. Matthew Warburton @m_warb, who passed his viva last Friday with no corrections and a recommendation of research excellence! ⭐️
Matthew will continue working with CAER as a researcher, with plans for an academic career. Well done, Matthew! 👏

Check out this preprint from @gandrewgabriel. Multi-day skill learning and generalization of continuous cursor control from a redundant EMG interface mapping.
The timing and shape of idioscyncratic muscle contractions are refined from feedback, then reused in different contexts.
This Sunday I'm back at @EurekaMuseum, this time with my own research! ⌨️🕹
Young families can test their tapping and typing skills with #TurboTyping, and I'll be talking about my career as an Experimental Psychology Researcher for @WomenScienceDay 🤩👩🔬

I love @ScienceWeekUK! #BSW19 was the sixth year I've taken part, and the first representing @ICON_UoL/@LeedsPsyc. It was a total blast! We introduced hundreds of kids to #VR and collected loads of data with our baseball task. Great day w Emily S and Matthew W, #SciComm buddies!
Our paper "Large-scale citizen science reveals predictors of sensorimotor adaptation" is now published in @NatureHumBehav!
Here's a thread on our 5-year journey (2019 - 2024) and findings. 🧵
