In my research I focus on the neuromechanical changes that underlie adaptation, for example after a rehabilitation intervention or as a consequence of an impairment. Further, I apply the principles of biomedical engineering and computer science to develop technologies for rehabilitation and health monitoring. Typical examples of my research are the study of upper limb coordination and muscle activity in people with dystrophy affecting the shoulder muscles and the performance analysis of pattern-recognition upper limb prostheses.
