The Physiology of Walking & Engineering Rehabilitation Laboratory, also known as PoWER Lab, is led by Dr. Max Kurz. The PoWER Lab primarily focuses on how humans process and attend to sensory information, produce motor actions, and learn new motor skills. By using a blend of neuroimaging and advanced biomechanical engineering analyses, the lab’s goal is directed at the development of innovative, rehabilitative solutions for individuals with developmental disabilities.
