Advances in Motor Learning & Motor Control 2022

Welcome to Advances in Motor Learning & Motor Control 2022

Marriot Marquis San Diego, Marina Ballroom F (South Tower, Level 3)
Friday November 11th, from 12pm- 7:00pm.

This symposium provides an annual forum for presenting the best new work in motor control and motor learning, including studies of human motor behavior, imaging, motor neurophysiology, and computational modeling.

Our program typically consists of 10 talks selected from peer-reviewed submitted abstracts, and 3 invited plenary talks. Submitted abstracts will be peer reviewed by our program committee and the top 10 reviewed abstracts will be presented at the meeting. Abstracts should be two pages maximum, with one page of text and one page of figures. See below for further details. The submission deadline for abstract submissions will be September 27th.

We look forward to seeing you in San Diego!

Maurice Smith, Adrian Haith, & Alaa Ahmed (co-chairs)

Abstracts from all previous meetings are available here.




Detailed submission instructions:

There are no submission fees. The acceptance rate for talks has historically been around 30%. The abstract submission deadline for MLMC 2022 will be September 27th.

Abstract submissions consists of a 2-page PDF (1 page of text & a 2nd page primarily of figures and their captions). The main text should be ≥ 11pt with a line spacing of ≥ 1, and figure captions should be ≥ 9pt. Successful abstracts from previous years are available here. See the link at the bottom of this page to submit an abstract. 

Submissions will be competitively peer reviewed by our program committee of over 40 leading experts in motor control and motor learning, and reviewer comments will be provided. The top submissions will be accepted for 22-minute oral presentations (6 minutes of which is reserved for questions). If you are a faculty member willing to review about 5 abstracts and would like to join the program committee please send a message to tcmc.conference@gmail.com.
