Overview

Mark Mon-Williams is affiliated with the University of Leeds in the United Kingdom, contributing extensively to fields related to medicine and neuroscience. Their research spans various subfields including cognitive neuroscience, health, toxicology and mutagenesis, education, developmental and educational psychology, and pediatrics, perinatology and child health.

Their main topics of work focus on motor control and adaptation, children's physical and motor development, early childhood education and development, action observation and synchronization, health, environment, and cognitive aging, tactile and sensory interactions, as well as health disparities and outcomes.

Mon-Williams has coauthored many publications with frequent collaborators such as Faisal Mushtaq, John Wright, Rosemary McEachan, Matthew Warburton, and J. Ryan Morehead. The venues where they publish regularly include bioRxiv (Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory), Wellcome Open Research, PLoS ONE, International Journal for Population Data Science, and Archives of Disease in Childhood.
