RESEARCH INTERESTS
Sutton is interested in applying the principles of biomechanics, motor control, neuromechanics, neurophysiology, and neuroimaging to clinical research questions aimed at understanding complex mechanisms which could be involved with improving neurodegenerative diseases and neurological injuries. BIOGRAPHY
Before joining the Neuromotor Behavior Lab, Sutton Richmond completed his PhD in human bioenergetics under the supervision of Dr. Brett Fling at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado. His doctoral research investigated neural mechanisms underlying the bilateral coordination of gait and postural control in healthy adults and adults diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. This research used diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) approaches to aid in evaluating postural control mechanisms. Prior to attending Colorado State University, Sutton took on the role of Research Assistant II in the Balance Disorders Laboratory at Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) in Portland, OR under the direction of Dr. Fay Horak. While at OHSU, Sutton worked with studies focused on mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI; otherwise known as concussions) and Parkinson’s disease. Outside of the lab, Sutton can be found biking, golfing, or walking his dogs with his wife. When Sutton is not enjoying the outdoors he is most likely rooting on his hometown Detroit Lions. |
