| Welcome to the Motor
Control and Movement Disorders Group at the University
of Illinois at Chicago! Our group consists of two laboratories focused on
developing a better understanding of the neural
processes associated with human motor control in both
health and disease: the Neural Control of Movement
Laboratory and the Brain and Sensory-Motor Control
Laboratory. We use systems neuroscience
and modeling techniques that include functional magnetic
resonance imaging (fMRI), structural MRI, diffusion
tensor imaging (DTI), electromyography (EMG),
high-density electroencephalography (EEG), eye
movement and
motion analysis recordings. |
 |
| One of our major goals integrates research with
educational endeavors. That is, our senior
scientists and postdoctoral fellows work directly with graduate,
undergraduate, and high school students. We hope
this site gives you a better idea of the exciting
people, projects, and opportunities available with the
Motor Control and Movement Disorders Group at UIC. |
