Stagg Group

The Stagg Group is based at the Nuffield Department of Clinical Neurosciences, University of Oxford.

Research Themes

Targeting motor learning & execution

We have two major research interests - to understand how brain dynamics change during motor skill acquisition, both in health and after brain injuries such as a stroke, and to develop new methods to modulate these dynamics to improve functional outcome.

Approaches

Experimental Medicine

We work with people living with neurological disorders, particularly stroke survivors, to understand how the brain can recover motor function after an injury, and how we can develop novel approaches to improve these physiological mechanisms to improve recovery.
