Description

This course presents a broad overview of how humans plan and execute movement at a systems level of analysis. Emphasis is placed on the relationship between motor behaviour and the way in which the nervous system is organised. The implications of nervous system organisation for motor learning and the treatment of a range of neuro-motor disorders are discussed.
