Mikael Novén serves as an Assistant Professor in the Movement and Neuroscience division of the Department of Nutrition, Exercise and Sports at the University of Copenhagen. His research program bridges aging studies, motor control, and neuroimaging with a focus on how the aging brain learns fine-motor skills using advanced MRI techniques including functional imaging, diffusion-weighted data, and quantitative T1 mapping.
His research interests center on aging-related changes in motor learning, brain structural networks, and language processing mechanisms. Using MRI methodologies, he investigates functional and structural reconfigurations during precision pinch tasks while also exploring brain correlates of phonological proficiency. His work spans cognitive neuroscience, gerontology, and MRI physics development with particular emphasis on sensorimotor integration across the lifespan.
Analysis of his publication record reveals consistent research trajectories in age-related motor control differences (particularly 2024-2025 bimanual tracking studies), neurolinguistics (2021-2024 language processing work), and MRI methodology development (2021 physics paper). His recent work increasingly focuses on comparative analyses between younger and older adults, with three 2024-2025 publications specifically addressing aging effects on motor skill acquisition.
Dr. Novén maintains active professional engagement through Twitter (@NeuroLingMi) and GitHub (MikNoven), with research outputs appearing in high-impact journals including NeuroImage, Human Brain Mapping, and Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience. His Scopus Author ID is 57199058849 and ORCID is 0000-0003-0256-0522.
