Principal Investigator: Jason DeFreitas, Professor and Chair, Exercise Science
Purpose of the Study: The human brain has multiple pathways that descend down the spinal cord to control the body as well as to modulate sensory information that comes in from the body. This particular study will be focused on how our brain adjusts that incoming sensory information, and how that may change with aging.
