"thinking is easy, acting is difficult. to act on what we think is troublesome " - goethe
Without movement or action, our thoughts would remain silent. Yet how we turn our thoughts into actions remains one of the big questions in neuroscience. Our vision is to understand the neural processes underlying the planning and execution of both healthy and pathological movement.
Behaviour is, in essence, the expression of movement. We use state-of-the-art approaches, including neurophysiology (M/EEG), MRI, non-inavsive brain stimulation, computational modelling, and fine-grained behavioural phenotyping, to understand the neural processes underpinning behavior, in both health and disease.
Our goal is to develop scientifically motivated approaches to neurologic rehabilitation, deliver step-changing improvements in outcome for patients with neurological disability due to acquired brain injury, and provide world-class training in basic and translational research for future generations of students working in academic neurorehabilitation
