Seminar Descriptions:
Biweekly 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. View a listing

Neuromuscular Plasticity Annual 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.
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.
