Psychology Research Interests

Goal-directed hand movements are a commonly used tool employed to allow interaction and manipulation of ones environment. Successful enactment of such movements employs a complex network of systems working in harmony. These include not only the motor system but the visual system which provides information, as do eye movements and cognitive elements such as attention which play a role in information processing. I am interested in how each underlying factor contributes and influences the end-point of goal-directed movements
