ISMN is a cross-departmental institute within Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê bringing together researchers with a common interest in sensory processing, motor control and sensorimotor integration
The Institute of Sensorimotor Neuroscience (ISMN) has experts in a wide range of fields applicable to the study of the neural control of movement and combines clinical, physiological, neuroimaging, developmental, psychophysical and computational approaches. In addition, the research at the IMN covers different motor systems, such as the eye, upper and lower limb, and balance. This broad approach allows an identification of the common themes of human neural function for motor control.
ISMN includes the following institutes and centres across Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê.
- Clinical and Movement Neurosciences
- Neuromuscular Diseases
- Wellcome Department of Imaging Neuroscience
- NPPÌý
- WIBR
The following Groups from the core research groups of ISMN:
- The Effort Lab
- Human Motor Control Lab
- The Neural Circuits for Movement Lab
- Primate Motor control Lab
- Action & Social Cogination labÌý
- Human Decision making & Action Selection lab
- Motor Neurorehabilitation lab
- Premotor circuits lab
- Spinal sensorimotor networks lab
- Neuroscience and behaviour laboratory
