Thomas H. McNaughton

Thomas H. McNaughton is a neuroscientist known for his research on how the brain processes and controls movement. His work particularly focuses on how neural circuits in the brain coordinate muscle actions during activities like walking and reaching. By studying brain activity in both animals and humans, McNaughton aims to understand the fundamental mechanisms behind voluntary movement, which can inform treatments for neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease and stroke. His research helps bridge the gap between neural activity and physical behavior, advancing our knowledge of motor control and brain function.
