Harrison's research uses light to look at how the brain's motor cortex adapts to stroke, and how other parts of the brain take over these affected areas and functions. The result may one day support increased recovery for stroke victims.
Fascinating, and creative approach – today I had a discussion with a potential supervisor; I told him I wanted to see a lot more biological involvement in psychology - and here it is, via neuroscience. Specialization in the motor cortex is a good area concerning stroke. It would be interesting to see the relationship between plasticity and other pathologies too. This is certainly something I am considering for future research.
