Andrew D. Nordin’s academic training includes undergraduate degrees in Physics and Kinesiology and a Master’s degree in Kinesiology from Lakehead University.

Studying human biomechanics and movement control as a doctoral student at University of Nevada, Las Vegas, his ability to measure brain activity during dynamic whole-body movement was limited by contemporary neuroimaging methods. To overcome these barriers, he developed novel electroencephalography (EEG) sensors and noise cancellation methods for cleaning high-density EEG during human locomotion at the University of Michigan and University of Florida. This allowed him to recover high-fidelity electrical brain activity during human obstacle navigation at walking and running speeds that were typically considered off-limits for mobile EEG studies. As an Assistant Professor at Texas A&M University, his lab is now able to more comprehensively study biomechanics and neural control of dynamic human movements during real-world behaviors.
