Description

This lecture will discuss five topics: Sensory feedback and movement control; force perception and movement control; heteronymous reflexes originated from force and muscle length feedback; heteronymous reflexes in stroke survivors; and neuromodulation opportunities.

Learning Objectives:

  1. Participants will learn to what extent sensory feedback effects movement control.
  2. Participants will identify two main receptors that provide muscle length and muscle positioning feedback to the brain.

Research: More information about Dr. Cuadra's research can be found on his faculty profile.  

Target Audience: Occupational therapists, physical therapists, and other rehab professionals, and other interested individuals.

Cristian Cuadra, Ph.D, M.Sc, PT. Related Seminars and Products


Dr. Cuadra is the director of the Neuromodulation and Neural Control of Movement Lab at the University at Buffalo, which studies neural circuits and their contribution to goal-directed actions (grasping, prehension, reaching, posture and walking), as well as their potential for creating neuromodulatory interventions. The lab's ultimate goal is to help improve function for older adults, and those who suffer of stroke, spinal cord injury, Multiple sclerosis, and Parkinson’s disease.
