EEG-EMG stimulation systems for synchronizing peripheral stimulation with peak corticomuscular coherence

Lisa Griffin (Supervisor)
Investigates neuromuscular control mechanisms during fatigue, training, rehabilitation and aging with single-motor unit recording, and designs electrical stimulation protocols for individuals with paralysis.

Mike Freedberg (Supervisor)
Uses repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and fMRI to identify mechanisms that support learning and memory in order to develop targeted therapies for patients suffering from memory loss.
