Bio
Matthew Rodger is a senior lecturer in Psychology interested in perceptual-motor coordination and skill development, with a specific focus on auditory-motor coordination. His research includes investigating skill development in music performance, including understanding how sound-movement coupling emerges through musical learning, and skilful adaptability in the context of music improvisation. His interests in improvisation in a musical context relate to the study of skilled perceptual-motor action more generally, in that many of the activities people can do well involve adaptive and yet flexible coupling of actions to dynamic environments and shifting goals.
