Romeo Chua

Professor
School of Kinesiology (KIN)

His research is directed toward the study of the sensorimotor adaptation of reaching movements and is guided by issues pertaining to factors that can influence our ability to adapt to errors in the preparation and execution of target-directed reaching movements. Dr. Chua studies the type of error signals that are used to drive motor updating and the influence conscious awareness of the error signals has on adaptation.
