Dr. Luc Tremblay is a Professor in the University of Toronto's Faculty of Kinesiology and Physical Education, where he leads the Perceptual-Motor Laboratory and serves as Director of the Centre for Motor Control. His research focuses on understanding how the brain integrates information from multiple sensory systems, including vision, proprioception, and audition, to support the learning, planning, and execution of voluntary movement. Dr. Tremblay's work examines the neural and behavioral mechanisms underlying sensorimotor control, motor learning, multisensory integration, and movement adaptation. Full profile on DiscoverResearch.
