Mark L. Latash, PhD, is an associate professor of kinesiology at Penn State University. Since the 1970s, he has worked extensively in the areas of normal and disordered motor control. His work has included animal studies, human experiments, modeling, and clinical studies. Latash chaired the organizing committee of the international conference, "Bernstein's Traditions in Motor Control," which took place at Penn State in August of 1996. Chapters of Progress in Motor Control, Volume 1 were written by invited speakers at the conference. The author of Control of Human Movement (Human Kinetics, 1993), Latash also translated Bernstein's classic, On Dexterity and its Development (Erlbaum), in 1996. Latash earned a master's degree in physics of living systems from the Moscow Physico-Technical Institute in 1976 and a PhD in physiology from Rush University in 1989. He is a member of the Society for Neuroscience and the American Society of Biomechanics. Latash lives in State College, Pennsylvania. His leisure activities include spending time with friends, playing guitar and singing, and reading.
