The lab focuses on studying control of human multi-joint movements, including three-dimensional arm movements and body movements during postural control and locomotion as well as effect of aging on control of multi-joint movements. Applicants interested in studying with Dr. Dounskaia need some experience in writing programs in Matlab , C++, or a comparative computer language. Competitive teaching assistantships are available in courses such as Human Functional Anatomy, Kinesiology or Exercise Physiology.
