Mollie joined the lab in 2009 as a PhD student in the BME program, after completing a BS from Rutgers University. Her research interests include the motor function in children with developmental disorders including autism. mkmarko @ jhu dot edu Her research results were published in the following papers: Stimulation of the human motor cortex alters generalization patterns of motor learning. JJ Orban de Xivry, MK Marko, SE Pekny, D Pastor, J Izawa, P Celnik, and R Shadmehr (2011) Journal of Neuroscience 31:7102-7110.  Motor learning relies on integrated sensory inputs in ADHD, but over-selectively on proprioception in Autism spectrum conditions.
