Annual Neuromuscular Plasticity Symposium
Each year three nationally renowned experts in the field of neuromuscular plasticity and rehabilitation are invited to present a platform presentation, meet with the trainees and faculty mentors, and provide feedback on the progress of the NMPT program as external advisors.
Rehabilitation Research Seminars
This seminar is designed to foster interdisciplinary discussions and collaborations and will be attended by all trainees and faculty mentors. The seminars are held in the HPNP Building. The lecture series include both local and external experts in rehabilitation related research, with a primary emphasis on neuromuscular plasticity. This forum provides the students an opportunity to get familiar with research activities at the University of Florida and Rehabilitation Centers and Institutes across the country. Following the presentations, students, postdoctoral fellows and faculty are given an opportunity to meet with the speakers and discuss research ideas and projects.
Neuromuscular
Plasticity Noons
These weekly seminars are organized in the summer and consist entirely of student presentations. Each week two senior Ph.D. students provide a scientific presentation on their research topic. During these seminars ample time is provided for discussion, and the diverse audience of students and faculty typically provide valuable feedback to the students. The presentations primarily serve to hone the speaking skills of trainees, and to provide further interaction among the students and training faculty.
