Welcome to the Neurophysiology Research Laboratory

The focus of the Neurophysiology Laboratory is to evaluate the sensorimotor control aspects of the human nervous system using a variety of neurophysiological techniques. A major component of this laboratory will focus on using a nerve recording technique called microneurography. This is the first laboratory in Canada to use this technique, and one of a handful around the world. Microneurography makes it possible to record the single-unit (single axon) activity from the peripheral nerves of awake human subjects. Other neurophysiological techniques used in this laboratory are H-Reflex testing, galvanic vestibular stimulation, and the use of surface and indwelling electromyography to assess normal movement and movement in certain clinical Neurological populations.
