Martin Héroux (BSc PT, MSc, PhD) trained as a physiotherapist at the University of Ottawa, where he subsequently research his Master’s degree. He obtained his PhD from Queen’s University (Kingston, Canada) and completed his post-doctoral training at the University of British Columbia. He has worked at Neuroscience Research Australia for almost 10 years , where his research spans a variety of areas. Dr. Héroux has completed numerous studies on human motor neuron physiology and muscle function and biomechanics. He also has an interest in human proprioception, sensorimotor control and spinal cord injury research. More recently, Dr. Héroux has investigated issues surrounding bad science and poor reporting in the biomedical science.
