Walking while blindfolded shows the importance of visual cues needed to manage precise foot placement & avoid falling. But how do we make decisions when there is an abundance of visual cues to choose from? Exciting new research from the @SMNLab bit.ly/3qbRz4M @javidomzam

We have a new @JNeurophysiol paper out about balance, internal models and generalization. It is from Dan Marigold's lab and the first author is @amanda_bakkum. Her tweet storm is below. Nice work @amanda_bakkum !
New @SMNLab paper with @amanda_bakkum , Dan Marigold, and @maxdonelan in @JNeurophysiol. We asked how the necessity to control balance during adaptation affects generalization of learning. Thread š

Interested in how people walk and how we can help them to walk better? Me too! I am looking for a postdoc (open now) to help us improve gait rehab in š§ populations. Iād love to talk with you about joining our team @KennedyKrieger and @RehabHopkins; contact me if interested!

new paper with Dan Marigold (@SMNLab) and Kim Lajoie. I really expected to interrupt foot reaches with medial PPC TMS, but didnāt happen.

A new study from Jeremy Wong, Jessica Selinger, and @maxdonelan addresses the question:
"Is natural variability in gait sufficient to initiate spontaneous energy optimization in human walking?"

Why are we curious? when options are defined by multiple attributes, people are curious about individual attributes regardless of the uncertainty of the total outcome, revealing a distinct type of anticipatory utility that shapes curiosity buff.ly/2DY4J01
