It was a wonderful opportunity to showcase our ongoing research at Institute for Human Neuroscience on #CerebralPalsy and #DownSyndrome at the Boys Town National Research Hospital Postdoctoral Research Symposium. Great questions and interactions with our colleagues!

As part of Morgan Busboom's NIH training fellowship (tinyurl.com/4skv369b) she spent time with Dr. Zach Lerner and the Biomechatronics Lab team NAU to learn how engineers approach the design and implementation of exoskeletons for gait rehabilitation.

Excellent presentation from Wyatt Spalding with Special Olympics Nebraska on his journey living with #CerebralPalsy , success as an athlete, and how healthcare scientist should interact and treat those with disabilities. #Respect #Resliance

It's a full house tonight Slowdown for the Science Cafe for the 2024 NESciFest! 🧠

2024 Pediatric MEG Think Tank Retreat discussions were incredible. It is exciting to see the rapid advancement of OPM imaging and how it is a disruptive technology that will change the field of pediatric neuroscience.

Exceptional presentations today on the neurophysiology of persons with #CerebralPalsy by undergraduate student PoWER lab members Liana Chinen and Shayla Edwards at Creighton University Research Week.

Many teams across Boys Town rocked funky socks in honor of #WorldDownSyndromeDay !
💙💛 #RockYourSocks #BTproud

Shout out to all our friends and family for #DownSyndrome Awareness Day! We are rocking our socks today to advocate for awareness and inclusivity for those with #DownSyndrome . #TeachLove

Congrats to lab alumnus Shaker Dukkipati for matching at Columbia University for his residency in child neurology!! tinyurl.com/32jxvtnw #CerebralPalsy

Excellent visit to Marquette MarquetteAHPRCResearch to present our lab’s research on #CerebralPalsy ! I was amazed by the cutting-edge research and state-of-the-art treatment facilities. Truly a world-class group of scientists. Great conversations and new collaborations.

Excited to see our MEG research on the cognitive-motor interactions in persons with #CerebralPalsy featured on the cover of Neuroscience. pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37996052/

Exceptional meeting #APTACSM in Boston! It was great to reconnect with our clinical collaborators AretechLLC B-Temia Inc. and share our latest scientific breakthroughs with the PT community. #CerebralPalsy

Our latest MEG brain imaging experimental results imply that the cognitive components involved in the selection of a motor action should be taken into consideration when evaluating and treating the altered motor actions seen in persons with #CerebralPalsy tinyurl.com/2p9cdnwh

Our latest results show that alterations in the brainstem are connected with the mobility impairments seen in persons with #CerebralPasly

Elephants continue to provide amazing and unique insights on the neuromechanics of large land animals. Our latest experimental outcomes, conducted with Professor John R. Hutchinson, show that vision plays an important role in the precision of the elephant's steps.

How does an elephant walk in a straight line?
Max Kurz, PhD and Professor John R. Hutchinson found that elephants' precision in walking is guided by their remarkable nervous system.
