| Research Description | I study the principles that underlie locomotion physiology and the application of these principles to the improvement of health. Current projects include elucidating the neuromechanical determinants of the elevated metabolic cost of gait after stroke, understanding the scaling of reflexes from shrews to elephants and developing a biomechanical energy harvester to power portable electronic devices. |

| Research Description | Research Program funded by NSERC, SSHRC and GEOIDE is in the field of Geographic Information Science and Systems, more particularly in the emerging areas of GeoComputation and GeoSimulation integrated within GIS and Web-based GIS frameworks. The focus is to develop innovative methods and approaches based on fuzzy and alternative sets theory, complex systems theory, cellular automata and agents, to understand, analyze and model dynamic spatial phenomena. The applications are in land use and land cover change, urban growth, forestry, ecology, and epidemiology. |
