Research Interests:
I am interested in motor control and motor learning with the specific application on enhancing human function and prevent injury. My research focuses on understanding the association between the alternative sensory inputs and postural control in individuals with amputation and peripheral sensory disorder through biomechanical and neurophysiological studies. To answer my research questions, I utilized a variety of research equipment including motion analysis system, transcranial magnetic stimulation, electromyography, electroencephalogram, instrumented treadmill, and wearable sensors. My work aims to inform the development of rehabilitation and injury prevention strategies for populations with movement dysfunctions.
