About us

Our laboratory aims to reveal the mechanism in which humans control and acquire well-organized movements, by means of behavioral experiments using robot manipulandum, neurophysiological experiments using electroencephalogram, transcranial magnetic stimulation etc., and mathematical modeling approach.
