Current research
My current research focuses on the interrelation between motor learning and attention in young and older adults. Specifically, I investigate how visual spatial attention can be modulated by sensorimotor adaptation, which might open avenues for new treatment approaches for patients with attentional deficits. In another project, I aim to reveal how attention to errors relates to motor learning outcomes in older adults in order to identify predictors for successful learning in older age.
Research interests
- Healthy ageing
- Motor control and motor learning
- Interrelations between motor learning and cognition
