Abstract

The administration of this PPG will require special efforts to coordinate our multi-university activities. The coordination of this program will be facilitated by our use of modern, multi-site videoconferencing systems.As Program Director, Dr. Houk will:1. Insure that the evolving plans of the five projects and collaborative core are well integrated.2. Arrange PPG meetings and facilitate communication among the five motor control groups.3. Communicate with an External Advisory Board.4. Disseminate information about PPG activities to the public sector.5. Coordinate recruitment and career development of young investigators in the PPG.
