Across the Galaxy of Time The role of Sensory Stimuli, Timing Mechanisms, and the Rhythmic Motor Performance Playing on neuromuscular constraints underlying the control of the rhythmic movement

The general aim of my research is the understanding of the mechanisms that underlie the control of the rhythmic voluntary movement, and how environmental stimuli, by effecting on the neuromuscular constraints, produce functional adaptations in the systems enrolled to control and stabilize sensorimotor coordination. In particular, my research is aimed to investigate whether and how timing mechanisms for the production of rhythmic movements are manipulable by environmental stimuli, and it explores whether a causal relationship subsists between the elicitation of a specific timing mode and the change of the precision performance.
