Short Biography

Jürgen Konczak is a Full Professor in the School of Kinesiology at the University of Minnesota. He is the head of the Human Sensorimotor Control Laboratory and also serves as director of a university-wide Center for Clinical Movement Science that includes over 30 faculty from the allied health, clinical, engineering and movement sciences.

Dr. Konczak’s research focuses on the neurophysiology and biomechanics of human motor function in clinical and special populations. He has published extensively in the area of neuromotor control, motor development and motor dysfunction due to neurological diseases such as ataxia, Parkinson's disease and dystonia. His research has been funded by the U.S. National Institutes of Health, the U.S. National Science Foundation, the German Science Foundation and the European Commission.
