🧠Neuroscientist, 🖖sci fi geek, 🐱somewhat-crazy cat lady. I run the Sensorimotor Neurophysiology Lab at Indiana University Bloomington. [email protected]

[Hannah J Block (@[email protected]) @IUBlockLab]

🧠Want to start a #PhD in sensorimotor #neuroscience in Fall 2026? Our NIH- and NSF-funded lab @IUBloomington uses human behavior and noninvasive brain stimulation to study motor learning and perception. More info: https://t.co/tPzzCyvWjC or [email protected]. Deadline is Dec. 15.

[JNP @JNeurophysiol]

Find out how the brain deals with conflicting cues in this #ArticleinPress, Timing of responses to gradual and abrupt #visuo-proprioceptive cue conflict with and without feedback (Reshma Babu et al. @IUBloomington):

My research group is looking for a postdoctoral fellow to study the principles of coadaptation between human-human and human-adaptive agent pairs. Ad below. Please retweet!

.@iu_kinesiology is still accepting applications for TT/T faculty positions in Exercise Science/Movement Science.

@jjodx These look awesome, thank you!

[Hannah J Block (@[email protected]) @IUBlockLab]

Anyone who teaches undergrad motor control and learning: are you willing to share syllabus, labs, or assignments with me? I'm teaching an honors section in the spring for the first time! We have lots of pre-PT/OT students and I'm using this book: https://t.co/sYxEReCQnc

[Hannah J Block (@[email protected]) @IUBlockLab]

@JCashaback @RachelLHawe Fantastic, thank you!!

[Hannah J Block (@[email protected]) @IUBlockLab]

@postlelab Sure! [email protected]

[Hannah J Block (@[email protected]) @IUBlockLab]

Hey #sfn2024 attendees, if you're interested in visuo-proprioceptive hand perception and recalibration: Come see our poster! Tuesday afternoon, board H40. 👉👈🧠

[Hannah J Block (@[email protected]) @IUBlockLab]

@Sarabellum8 Awesome! Good luck! 🙌

[Hannah J Block (@[email protected]) @IUBlockLab]

@Sarabellum8 Is it submitted submitted, or submitted-internally submitted? I am in the latter stage, which always makes me kinda nervous. I keep checking my email in case they're telling me I need to fix some formatting thing or whatever at the last minute.

[Neuromechanics Lab is Lena Ting @NeuromechanicsL]

Hey we are hiring! Would love to have some colleagues at Emory in BME working in sensorimotor systems and related technologies that cross the basic/clinical divide!

@jakublimanowski @jlmirdamadi @WaliManasi If only I could report my productivity as an extrapolation of the past week or so! 😅

(4/4) ...multisensory integration likely adds processing time. Research seeking to manipulate motor control via multisensory perception should therefore consider the parallel unisensory and multisensory pathways that affect the motor system.

(3/4) ...the primary somatosensory cortex (S1). These updates are proprioceptive, having not yet been integrated with visual cues through interaction with high-level posterior parietal regions. This might provide advantages in terms of faster updates, for example, because...
