Maya Foster

Maya Foster is a PhD student in biomedical engineering at Yale University. She is interested in developing technological tools that improve the understanding and treatment of incurable neurological disorders. Maya aspires to make the treatment options for such disorders more accessible on a global scale by getting involved with science policy also. Ultimately, in all areas of her interests, Maya wishes to conduct research that’s receptive to the communities she cares about. Maya spends her spare time reading & writing, creating visual narratives, traveling, dancing, playing cello, and running her small online shop on Redbubble that shares messages primarily centered on neuroscience and BIPOC identity.

Generally interested in the evolution, development, and interaction of the inherent mechanisms behind cognitive abilities. Currently studying these phenomenons via motor learning through studying, modeling, and simulating how the motor cortex adapts to everchanging physiological, evolutionary, and environmental demands. My hope is that this research can inform sports training, stroke rehabilitation, and general physical therapies.
