David B. Glover, PhD

I research how disciplined practice trains perception. I help universities, doctoral students, and practitioner communities turn embodied expertise into rigorous scholarship.

My work bridges scholarly theory and practitioner-based inquiry, drawing on ecological approaches to learning to understand adaptation, perceptual refinement, and adaptive expertise in complex, real-world environments. Rather than separating theory and practice, I treat practice as inquiry and theory as a means of clarifying, testing, and refining what practice makes possible.
