What are the key techniques and measuring tools that will be used?
Limb Movement Analysis Tracking Eye Movement Tracking Balance Force Plates Trancranial Magnetic Stimulation of the muscle and brain Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging of the brain Magnetoencephalography of the brain Event Related Potential recording of the brain Electroencephalography and Electromyography of the muscle and brain Dynamic Ultrasonography of the muscle Images: The following two figures represent the sub-groups interested in how motor and muscle systems are controlled by the brain and nervous system using a variety of research techniques. Figure 1: The figure shows an eye-hand coordination task carried out by Chris Mialls group. The task involved tracking a cursor with a joystick so that it followed a moving target. Brain activity was measured using an fMRI scanner during the task and the data demonstrated that bilateral Cerebellar areas of the brain were essential for coordinating eye and hand actions. Figure 2: The figure shows a new ultrasound imaging technique devel
