Explore a comprehensive research lecture that delves into the neural mechanisms of dexterous movement control and innovative neurotechnology solutions for movement disorders. Learn about the integration of sensory and motor signals in the nervous system, understand how these mechanisms malfunction in conditions like Parkinson's disease and stroke, and discover cutting-edge neuroengineering approaches for movement restoration. Drawing from extensive research experience in sensorimotor systems neuroscience, network modeling, and neurotechnology development, examine how brain networks coordinate skillful movements and how this knowledge informs the design of brain-machine interface therapies, including neurofeedback, myoelectric feedback paradigms, and neuromodulation techniques for patients with damaged sensorimotor systems.
