Course Description
Movement is guided by the brain’s internal representation of the body and its environment. In this session, Marc Ellis explores how Cortical Mapping influences motor control and coordination. Participants will examine how sensory input contributes to the formation of neural maps and how these maps guide movement patterns. The lecture reviews how disruptions in neural mapping can lead to altered movement and functional deficits. By understanding how the brain organizes and adapts these maps through neuroplasticity, clinicians can develop targeted rehabilitation strategies to improve movement and performance. This session highlights the relationship between brain organization and functional movement.
What you’ll learn:
- Understand how neural maps influence movement and coordination.
- Recognize the role of sensory input in motor control.
- Identify how disruptions in mapping affect movement patterns.
- Explore neuroplasticity and map reorganization.
- Apply mapping concepts to rehabilitation strategies.
