Understanding the science and art of human performance
Our lab studies human performance and creativity in all its forms. We are particularly interested in how people learn to perform complex skills in high stakes environments, and how feedback and assessment support skill acquisition. We also explore how to optimize performance at the later stages of skill development. Much of our current work is focused on the education of health professionals, musicians and athletes.
We bring an interdisciplinary approach to our research. Members of our lab are drawn from fields of study that span several different programs and departments, mostly (but not entirely) at McMaster University.
Please note that we are not currently accepting any new undergraduate or graduate students.
