“Neural Mechanisims of Muscle Contractions”
The overall goal of this research proposal is to determine if the control process is indeed unique for eccentric versus concentric movements and whether the neural network for controlling one movement is preferentially impaired over the other in movement-disorder populations, such as aging.
