Our guest today is Prof. Pieter Medendorp. He is the head of the sensorimotor (http://sensorimotorlab.com/) lab at the Donders Institute for Brain, Cognition and Behaviour.
In this conversation we talk about the science of sensory integration and transformation. Specifically, how these very fundamental processes impact us on a daily basis without us even realizing it. We discuss how our senses can fool us and how that experience can be fun. We also make links to industry and how forms of therapy and diagnosis can improve using these principles.
