Research Interests

I am interested in human control of movement as applied to prosthetics. I study the motion of the fingers during grasping tasks, and am working towards implementing a human movement model in an anatomical robot hand. I am also interested in brain-machine interface and its application to the control of robotic hands.

Additional Interests

medicine, rugby, writing, beer
