It was a pleasure to deliver a keynote at the 2026 RIOgroup meeting to discuss the Sensory Conflict Hypothesis of AOMI (see 2/2). After 20 years of RIO meetings, it's amazing to see the organization growing with a strong international attendance and student contribution. 1/2

I had the pleasure of joining @tamu.bsky.social powerlifting coach and PhD candidate Rob Escalante on the Escalate Podcast to discuss implications and benefits of motor imagery and observation for powerlifting. Take a listen below! 👇 open.spotify.com/episode/6rug...

My first thesis study tested observation-contagions in golf putting🏌️‍♀️ Watching different actions led to imitative biases, but when the same videos were thought to be errors, biases were suppressed. Weak evidence of compensation when watched errors were unexpected. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

New accepted paper by Molly Brillinger et al. from the University of Toronto 🇨🇦. The authors found cooperative dyad practice increased task engagement and partner performance similarity, but did not improve motor skill acquisition or retention
