The School of Sport and Exercise Sciences is committed to supporting the UK-wide volunteer STEM Ambassador Programme, co-ordinated nationally by STEMNET and managed locally by MerseySTEM (includes Cheshire). The programme enables anyone with Science, Technology, Engineering or Maths (STEM) skills to inspire young people and demonstrate the possibilities of STEM subjects and careers.
In the Brain and Behaviour Research Group within RISES, we study human motor behaviour from the neural level through to perception and cognition. Our two main areas of research are sensorimotor neuroscience and expert performance and learning.
