Dr. Floeter received her MD and PhD at Washington University in St. Louis and completed residency training in Neurology at the University of California, San Francisco. After postdoctoral work at UCSF, she came to NIH as a senior staff fellow in the Laboratory of Neural Control to study mammalian spinal cord circuits controlling movement. She joined the EMG section as a clinical associate in Clinical Neurophysiology three years later and has served as Chief of the NINDS EMG Section since 1996 and as the NINDS Deputy Clinical Director since 2006. Dr. Floeter’s recent research has been dedicated to analyzing changes in motor neurons and spinal circuits in patients with disorders that disrupt the corticospinal motor system.
