Study of aging mechanisms responsible for deterioration of motor activity and determination of compensatory mechanisms occurring during aging, normal or dysfunctional. Exploration of degenerative processes associated with aging by examining neurological, neurosensory, cognitive and muscular deficits and their effects on information processing, motor learning, postural balance, locomotion, prescription of physical activity and various motor activities. Application of fundamental biomechanical concepts and key models of motor control to determine the specific effect of aging on mobility and motor adaptation.
