Models and Experiments in Timing, Rhythm, and Entrainment

Recruiting participants with autism or stutter!

The precision of entrainment of movement to rhythm has been shown to vary with a whole range of learning and developmental conditions, including stuttering and autism. This winter in the METRE lab, we’re running a set of experiments that look at sensorimotor integration for rhythmic timing in participants with autism and in participants who stutter.…

Experiments are underway!

With help from some sharp, motivated undergraduates, we have started a set of experiments exploring the inner logic by which mind, action, and external processes are coordinated in time. Our working hypothesis is that covert timekeeping and action timing operate in a closed loop: our inner timekeeper is used to plan the timing for our…

Arriving at McMaster!

I will be arriving on campus July 1st. I’m excited to start setting up some experiments! Please feel free to reach out with any inquiries about research opportunities or other questions. I am not planning to formally advise any new undergraduate projects this fall, but there may be informal opportunities to help out, and I’d…
