SHORT SUMMARY

Words that echo in the heads of many athletes, coaches and clinicians aiming for optimal performance or rehabilitation. But what are these perceptions? How do they reflect neurophysiological mechanisms important for optimal performance or rehabilitation? How do these perceptions interact with each other to influence human behavior and the regulation of our movements?

By integrating knowledge from physiology, neuroscience and psychology, this series of lectures will present the state of the art on these perceptions. It will attempt to provide answers to these questions, and to identify perspectives for optimizing performance and health.
