Research Interests

My research spans a variety of topics, including perception and motor control in real, augmented, and virtual environments. Some of the application areas of my research include training using virtual reality, improving safety and efficiency in industrial work settings, and robotics. Recently, my work has also been focused on using nonlinear time series analysis techniques to understand human movement dynamics and coordination.
