CNI Accessible Lecture - The Cerebellum's Hidden Powers: Insights into Learning and Motor Skills

Registration Link

Dr. Dominique Pritchett is an assistant professor of biology at Howard University. His lab is largely interested in understanding the neural mechanism that underlies simple associative learning behaviors and Autism which has significant connections to motor learning and adaptive behavior. In this conversation, he will share his nonhuman work on exercise and cerebellar activity boosting learning and the creation of a new motor ball app to assess human brain plasticity. This event will allow for a discussion of the empirical studies on motor skills, neurodiversity, and boosting brain plasticity and learning for our most vulnerable students.
