Field of interest:
changes in body representation that take place after amputation
of a lower limb.
- How is the system reacting to the absence of
normal somatosensory feedback and what type of information is
used as an alternative input source?
- How does the dependency on alternative input
changes across time?
- What is the relationship between the mechanical
characteristics of the prosthesis and the above mentioned adaptation
processes?
- How do cognitive processes interact with the
control of a prosthesis?
