Dr. Gunnar Blohm

Professor

Biography

Gunnar Blohm is a Professor at Queen's University, specializing in Biomedical Molecular Sciences within the School of Medicine. His research is focused on computational modeling and experimentation in sensorimotor control, particularly concerning the three-dimensional properties of movement and perception. He investigates how sensory and motor systems interact, emphasizing the computations involved in navigating and acting purposefully within a 3D environment. His interest areas include eye-hand coordination and the dynamics of saccadic and smooth pursuit eye movements. Through the employment of computational modeling techniques, behavioral experiments, and brain imaging, he aims to understand how these systems function together. Additionally, his work incorporates brain stimulation studies involving patients, contributing to the understanding of sensory-motor integration and spatial perception.
