Efficient elastic tissue motions indicate general motor skill

Insights into the general nature of motor skill could fundamentally change how we develop movement abilities, with implications for musculoskeletal well-being and injury. Here, researchers sought to identify indicators of general motor skill—those shared by experts across disciplines (e.g., squash, ballet, volleyball) during non-specialized movements.

This work was carried out in part through the use of MIT.nano Immersion Lab’s facilities!
