Jörn joined the lab in 2003 after completing his PhD in Psychology from University of California Berkeley. With Jörn, we built an fMRI compatible robot and became the first lab in the world to study reach adaptation using functional magnetic resonance imaging. Jörn brought the tools of statistical learning to the problem of motor adaptation, altering the path of motor learning research to incorporate optimal estimation and control. He subsequently became an Assistant Professor at University of Bangor, UK, then Associate Professor at University College London. He is currently Research Chair for Motor Control and Computational Neuroscience, University of Western Ontario.
