Dr. Finley received his bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from Florida A&M University in 2004 and his doctoral degree in Biomedical Engineering from Northwestern University in 2010. Following his doctoral training, Dr. Finley completed a postdoctoral fellowship in Neuroscience at Johns Hopkins University. Dr. Finley and his research team use experimental studies and computational models to understand how the neuromuscular system and environment interact to influence mobility in both healthy individuals and in individuals with neuromotor impairments such as stroke and Parkinson’s disease. His work relies on principles of engineering, neuroscience, biomechanics, and exercise physiology to ultimately design more effective interventions to improve mobility
