Research description

My research concerns exercise neurophysiology, i.e. how neural control of movement is affected by fatigue, learning and exercise, and how exercise and our habitual physical activity patterns affect neurophysiological mechanisms underlying brain health.

Teaching portfolio

My teaching mainly concerns the neurophysiological basis of motor control and learning, and methods for investigating this. My teaching also concerns biomechanics and research design.
