Thrishantha joined
the lab in 2001 as a postdoc after completing a PhD in Control and Robotics
from Saga University, Sri Lanka. In
our lab he worked on the ability of the brain to predict consequences of
motor commands and used saccades as a measure of that prediction. He subsequently became a Radcliff Fellow at
Harvard University. He is currently
Assistant Professor at the Division of Engineering, King’s College London. The results of his research were published
in the following papers: Saccade
adaptation in response to altered arm dynamics. T Nanayakkara, and
R Shadmehr (2003) Journal of Neurophysiology 90:4016-4021. Abstract Citations A real-time
state predictor in motor control: study of saccadic eye movements during
unseen reaching movements. G Ariff, O
Donchin, T Nanayakkara, and R Shadmehr (2002) Journal
of Neuroscience 22:7721-7729. Abstract Citations |
