About
Flavie Torrecillos is a leading neuroscientist whose research lies at the intersection of motor control, error processing, and the neural mechanisms underlying movement disorders. Her work has fundamentally advanced our understanding of how the brain detects and responds to errors during movement execution, bridging sensory and reward-prediction error frameworks. In her highly cited 2014 paper (59 citations), Torrecillos demonstrated that a frontocentral negative potential—a key electrophysiological marker—is modulated by movement execution errors, revealing shared neural resources for processing sensory and reward-prediction errors. This finding has profound implications for understanding the neural basis of motor learning and adaptation. Beyond this seminal work, her contributions extend to exploring how these error-related signals are disrupted in conditions like Parkinson’s disease, offering critical insights into the pathophysiology of movement disorders. With a growing impact on the field, Torrecillos’ research continues to shape our understanding of the dynamic interplay between sensory feedback, cognitive control, and motor behavior, making her a pivotal figure in human electrophysiology and motor neuroscience.
