Richard Andersen

Richard Andersen is a prominent neuroscientist known for his research on how the brain processes sensory information and coordinates movement. He studies how different parts of the brain work together to help us perceive our environment and plan actions, such as reaching or grasping. His work provides insights into the neural basis of perception, decision-making, and motor control, which can inform treatments for neurological conditions and advance brain-machine interface technology. Andersen's research often combines experiments with advanced imaging techniques to understand the complex networks involved in integrating sensory inputs with motor outputs.
