The EAC consists of five internationally renowned scientists in relevant fields. The EAC meets semiannually as they review the progress of the Junior Investigator research projects, effectiveness of the Research Cores, quality of leadership and resource management, and the merit and feasibility of proposed pilot projects.

Member Affiliation Expertise

Dr. Thomas Buchanan, Chair

University of Delaware

Eminent researcher in neuromuscular biomechanics for joint stabilization. He has led a very successful COBRE with clinical translational focus through all three phases.

Dr. Randy Nudo

Kansas University Medical Center

Performed seminal research in neuroplasticity that provided the basis for stroke rehabilitation; editor of the #1 rehabilitation journal; from an IDeA state.

Dr. Evangelos Christou University of Florida

Research focuses on the effects of aging and neuromuscular control of movement and movement accuracy in young and older humans during isometric and anisometric contractions

Dr. Nia Amazeen

Arizona State University

Her research is concerned with identifying common lawful mathematical principles, principles of dynamical similitude, that govern the behavior of systems that appear to be very different but demonstrate the same basic behavior patterns.

Dr. Eleanor Rogan

University of Nebraska Medical Center

Leading clinical translational researcher and administrator in our state’s academic
medical center.
