HLSC 5307G - Applied Techniques in Neuromechanics


The purpose of this course is to provide students with an opportunity to gain exposure to theoretical and practical applications of commonly used techniques in neuromechanics. The course will provide an overview of each of the techniques, and a discussion about the strengths and limitations of each technique, as well as what it can reveal about the underlying physiology being measured. Examples of techniques discussed may include: electromyography, motion capture systems, eye tracking systems, transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), electroencephalography (EEG). The laboratories will provide opportunities for hands on experience with the techniques discussed in the course. For the second half of the course, students will select one technique and design a small pilot project where they will collect sample data and write a “journal article” style report. This course is especially useful for those interested in the field of Neuromechanics or working in Clinical Neurophysiology in hospital settings.
