Clinical Cognitive Neuroscience Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that measures brain and spinal cord activity during body movement to develop treatment methods for occupational therapy.

AboutAbout the lab
Rehabilitation, starting from the brain and spinal cord.
In rehabilitation and occupational therapy for people with impaired physical function, it is important to look at the central nervous system, including the brain and spinal cord.
The Clinical Cognitive Neuroscience Lab non-invasively evaluates the excitability of the central nervous system during movement and occupational activities, and works to develop treatment programs based on scientific evidence.
The lab actively pursues translational research that brings the results of basic research into clinical treatment.
Undergraduate students also belong to the lab as graduation research students.
Key terms
- Central nervous system
- The brain and spinal cord
- Non-invasive
- Measuring or stimulating the body without harming it
- Translational research
- Research aimed at putting the results of basic research to use in actual treatment
- Developmental coordination disorder
- A developmental disorder in which combining the movements of the hands, legs, and body smoothly is extremely difficult compared with what is expected for one's age
ResearchResearch themes
Using neurophysiological and neuropsychological methods, functional brain imaging, three-dimensional motion analysis, and other approaches, the lab aims to establish rehabilitation as an academic discipline.
*Illustrative imageHow the brain moves the body
The lab studies how the brain controls voluntary movement, that is, moving the body as intended. It also investigates differences and interactions between the left and right cerebral hemispheres, and brain activity while a cognitive task and a motor task are performed at the same time.
*Illustrative imageMotor imagery, action observation, and motor illusion
The lab studies the brain mechanisms involved when a person imagines moving their body, watches other people move, or feels as if they are moving when they are not.
*Illustrative imageFunctional recovery and brain stimulation
The lab studies the mechanisms by which function recovers in patients with damage to the central or peripheral nerves. It also examines the interaction between repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation and motor learning.
*Illustrative imageVR/MR and digital therapeutic devices
The lab evaluates rehabilitation systems that use VR and MR and develops treatment methods based on them. It is also working on developing digital therapeutic devices for developmental coordination disorder.
