Bio/Research
François Tremblay received his baccalaureate in physiotherapy from Laval University in 1985 and a master’s degree in neurobiology in 1989 from the same Institution. He joined the University of Ottawa in 1988 as full-time lecturer in the Physiotherapy Program. In 1991, he went to the University of Montréal to undertake a PhD in Neurological Sciences. Back at the University of Ottawa in 1997, Dr. Tremblay established a research program to study the impact of normal aging on hand function. Over the years, he also developed an expertise in the application of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). In his work, Dr. Tremblay uses TMS for safe and non-invasive explorations of the corticospinal system in humans. Dr Tremblay also uses psychophysical and biomechanical approaches to characterize sensory and motor deficits affecting hand function with age. Dr. Tremblay is a member of the Faculty of Graduate Studies and holds cross-appointments with the School of Human Kinetics and the School of Psychology. Dr Tremblay is also a scientist affiliated with the Elisabeth Bruyère Research Institute, where is the principal investigator in the clinical neuroscience lab.
