 Dr. Clark
is a professor of physiology in the Department of Biomedical
Sciences. He received his doctorate from Syracuse University, and he currently has,
or has previously held, funding from agencies such as NASA, NIH, the Osteopathic
Heritage Foundations, the American College of Sports Medicine, the Mal de Debarquement
Syndrome Balance Disorder Foundation, and the American Osteopathic Association. He has
expertise in transcranial magnetic stimulation, assessment of spinal reflexes,
electromyography, and muscle functional magnetic resonance imaging. Dr. Clark
recently received the 2010 New Investigator of the Year Award from the American College
of Sports Medicine and has published more than 60 scholarly articles and book
chapters. The overarching aim of Dr. Clark’s research is to determine the neuromuscular
mechanisms that mediate acute adjustments and chronic adaptations in response to
changes in physical activity and under pathological conditions. The goal is to
develop effective and implementable interventions that increase muscle function
(e.g., muscle strength, motor control, fatigue-resistance) and physical performance
in older adults or patients of any age who have orthopedic and neurologic disabilities
for preventative and rehabilitation medicine.
