Dilwyn Marple-Horvat

Professor Dilwyn Marple-Horvat holds an academic position in the Department of Sport and Exercise Sciences at Manchester Metropolitan University. His research focuses on motor neuroscience, particularly the cerebellum's role in visuomotor control, ataxic gait in cerebellar patients, and the interplay between eye movements and mobility. He investigates how vision and knowledge affect balance in challenging environments, such as fear of falling at heights, and applies this to real-world scenarios like drunk driving detection.

• Expertise spans biomechanics, movement disorders, and sensory-motor integration.
• Research outputs include studies on internal models of moving objects, gravity perception, and clinical applications in neurorehabilitation.
