Research Summary:
My research area of interest focuses on saccade measurement and modeling. Saccades are studied to gain a better understanding of the human oculomotor plant and neuromuscular system. Abnormal saccades can be indicators of both neurological disorders and mild traumatic brain injury (MTBI).
