Dr. Anita Bialunska research interest involves the perception-action relationships, specifically multisensory processing, spatial and temporal attention, sensorimotor integration and synchronization, rhythm perception and production. She employs basic and clinical research both in vision and audition and develops behavioral and electrophysiological techniques to better understand mechanisms and neuronal underpinnings of these functions and related dysfunctions, to advance the treatment of brain disorders.
She is currently looking at the recovery mechanisms of impaired visuomotor control in the Mild Traumatic Brain Injury population, as well as the relationship between the processing of rhythmical information and brain disorders, expertise, language differences. In addition, she is interested in the neuroplasticity mechanisms and the potential effect of training of rhythmical skills in the improvement of other functions (e.g., social, language, consciousness).
