About
Kristine M. Mosier is a leading researcher in cognitive neuroscience, with a primary focus on the neural mechanisms underlying motor learning, sensorimotor integration, and their disruptions in neurodevelopmental disorders. Her work bridges the gap between motor control and higher-order cognitive processes, most notably in her highly cited study, "Remembering forward: Neural correlates of memory and prediction in human motor adaptation" (2011, 44 citations). This seminal paper explored how the brain uses predictive models and memory systems to adapt movements, revealing critical interactions between the cerebellum, basal ganglia, and prefrontal cortex. Dr. Mosier has also pioneered innovative methodologies for studying clinical populations, as demonstrated by her feasibility study on simultaneous robotic manipulation and fMRI in children with autism spectrum disorders (2014). This work directly addresses the unanswered question of how sensorimotor deficits in ASD relate to underlying brain function, opening new avenues for understanding the disorder's neural basis. Through her integration of advanced neuroimaging with behavioral robotics, Dr. Mosier continues to make impactful contributions that inform both basic science and translational applications in neurological and psychiatric conditions.
