Dean's Blog: Stephen Scott's robot is changing what we know about the brain

Tue, Dec, 2018

When Dr. Stephen Scott, Professor in the Department of Biomedical and Molecular Sciences, explains his research, he frequently uses a picture that shows a running back on a football team who is about to run on a diagonal line to his right through a gap in the opposing team’s defense. In the picture, the running back hasn’t yet started to run through the gap, but he is angled towards it. For Dr. Scott, this situation presents an endlessly complicated question: what would happen if the runner suddenly decided to run left instead of right?
