The 11th interdisciplinary meeting of biomechanics, motor control and learning in sport and training science will take place in Darmstadt in fall 2016. The international conference aims at bringing together scientists to discuss interdisciplinary issues at the intersection of these three research sections.
This book contains the abstracts of four keynotes, 62 talks and 21 posters that will be presented at the conference. Keynotes: Dagmar Sternad from Boston, USA, will discuss a "A task-dynamic Approach to Motor Control". Aaron Coutts from Sydney, Australia, will deal with "theoretical con-cepts and practical applications for monitoring athlete training". In addition, Jan Peters from Darmstadt, Germany, will analyze robot control and learning. Finally, Maarten F. Bobbert from Amsterdam, The Netherlands, will present "Possibilities and Limitations of musculoskeletal Modelling and Optimization in Sports and Rehabilitation". The numerous contributions to the conference demonstrate the wide range of research topics in interdisciplinary sport science.
