My research addresses sensorimotor function following ACL injury. My current work aims to better assess re-injury fears and anxieties by implementing functional neuroimaging techniques.
My research addresses sensorimotor function following anterior crociate ligament (ACL) injury, with emphasis on both proprioception and neuropsychological constructs. In particular, re-injury anxiety presumably influences sensorimotor processing and resulting functional performance with implications on ACL re-injury rates. My current work aims to better assess re-injury fears and anxieties among both asymptomatic individuals and following ACL injury by implementing functional neuroimaging techniques.
I currently use electroencephalography (EEG) to measure the arousal response to movement-related anxiety, provoked by sudden destabilising perturbations.
