The NeuroErgonomics Lab examines the mind-motor-machine nexus to understand, quantify, and predict human performance when interacting with emerging technologies (unmanned, collaborative, and wearable systems) in safety-critical extreme environments (e.g., emergency response, space exploration, oil and gas).
Basic research in our lab advances knowledge of human neuromuscular functioning, particularly under stress, and in underserved populations. These efforts provide a foundation for our applied research and technology development efforts that focus on augmenting and supporting embodied cognition through equitable multimodal interface designs, wearable technologies, fluent human-robotic interactions (HRI), brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) and neurostimulation.
