This Presidential Young Investigator Award is for support of Christopher Atkeson at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. His research interests are the study of motor control and learning in humans and machines. He uses tools and techniques from biological, computer, and engineering sciences to study how humans control and improve their movement and how machines might attain human levels of perfomrance. Atkeson's current research has three main thrusts: computational studies of motor learning in general; experimental studies of robot learning; and psychophysical studies of human motor learning. The significance of this work lies in the implications it has for both humans and robots: in the former, better understanding of how we learn new arm movements, compensate for motor disorders, and adapt to prosthetic and assistive devices; in the latter, more useful and usable robots.

这个总统青年研究者奖是为了支持麻省理工学院的克里斯托弗·阿特克森。他的研究兴趣是人类和机器的运动控制和学习研究。他使用生物、计算机和工程科学的工具和技术来研究人类如何控制和改善他们的运动，以及机器如何达到人类的表现水平。Atkeson目前的研究有三个主要方向：一般运动学习的计算研究；机器人学习的实验研究以及人类运动学习的心理物理研究。这项工作的意义在于它对人类和机器人的影响：在前者，更好地理解我们如何学习新的手臂运动，补偿运动障碍，并适应假肢和辅助装置；在后者，更有用和可用的机器人。
