Brown, Ph.D. Department of Engineering @ Whiting School of Engineering Restoring dexterity in telerobotics: An engineer\u2019s journey into neuroscience<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n The human body can perform dexterous manipulation across a variety of environments. However, some environments present challenges due to limitations in function, distance, and scale. In many of these cases, access can be restored through the use of a telerobot. Dexterous manipulation via a telerobot is feasible only if it can effectively extend the user\u2019s inherent sensorimotor control scheme to the distal environment. In this talk, I will discuss research from our lab that explores the intricate relationship between touch perception, sensorimotor control, and telerobotics in both healthy and impaired individuals. Specifically, I will focus on our efforts to 1) restore \u201cneurally efficient\u201d control in upper-limb prosthetics, 2) enhance skill learning and skill transfer in robotic minimally invasive surgical training, and 3) assess and augment touch perception in healthy and impaired sensorimotor systems. Throughout, I will emphasize the need for increased collaboration between engineers and neuroscientists to deepen our understanding of these long-standing societal challenges and move closer to long-term solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Faculty Host: Dr. Christopher Fetsch<\/p>\n\n\n
