When we perform dexterous movements, like playing the violin or drawing, we monitor multiple sensory modalities to ensure our movements are being executed as intended. If they aren’t, adjustments to movement can be made on the fly. How do the dynamics of brain activity enable such rapid and seamless sensorimotor interplay? The goal of our research is to uncover the network- level principles the brain uses to filter and integrate feedback to modify ongoing behavior, and to use these principles to develop neurophysiologically-grounded neurotechnology to rehabilitate and restore damaged sensorimotor systems.
