A new study by NeuRA researchers has found that e-health fall prevention exercise programs can improve #balance, prevent #falls, and reduce fall-related injuries if successfully integrated into clinical practice. Published in Age and Ageing, Professor Kim Delbaere, Senior

Want to calculate gait events, and check them? We've had a tool for this for years, which I now also translated to Python, and made available for all of yous to use. Mohammadreza Mahaki even made some videos on how to use the tool. Feedback welcome! github.com/SjoerdBruijn/G…

1. This summer I've been thinking a lot about "cognitive load" which is term that has multiple definitions but for me means something like "the amount of processing, analysing, thinking, & deciding I can do in a day before my brain stops working" here's a short thread about that

Please share- we are hiring for a tenure track, assistant professor in APK at UF! Focus is biobehavioral science including neural control of movement, movement disorders, aging, or spaceflight effects on the brain and behavior.  explore.jobs.ufl.edu/en-us/job/5327…

Excited to share our last study exploring how MRgFUS impacts the vestibular system, potentially paving the way for new therapies In Parkinson’s disease and TBI. Proud to contribute to this important work! Imperial Department of Brain Sciences Barry Seemungal 🇬🇧 🇹🇹 Vestibular Neurology Research Group

🚨Please help if you can🚨 Are you the parent of a typically developing child aged between 5 and 17? If so, I would be extremely grateful if you could complete this short survey to tell us how often they do or do not fall over: Survey link: app.onlinesurveys.jisc.ac.uk/s/mmu/falls-in…

Congrats to Taniel Winner on her paper showing persistent individual differences in gait dynamics across walking speeds using a data-driven RNN model of gait. We could identify individuals regardless of gait speed using only kinematics. nature.com/articles/s4159…

🚨Check out our new paper on the effects of #tDCS on postural response to perturbation in people with #parkinsons. 🧠⚡ 8 sessions of tDCS led to: - faster muscle activation - less time to recover balance Benefits lasted for 1 month! 50 days' access authors.elsevier.com/c/1jgAg3RoQ8ma…

Our lab at ASU is looking for a postdoc! If you have interest in balance-related neurorehabilitation, please consider applying! you can also reach out to me directly with inquiries at [email protected] apply.interfolio.com/152408 Hyunglae Lee

Wow. Wish I did not recognise so many elements of this but Masud Husain really has described issues many colleagues will know all too well. My only difference is one of emphasis-WE need to start trying to bring about these changes & pushing against territoriality as best we can.

This is very impressive research on Predictors of Chronic Dizziness in Acute Unilateral Vestibulopathy - cutoff values for the VAAI (23/54), VVAS(33.5/100), and HADS‐A (7.5/21) at 10 weeks were identified as predictors. …-hnsfjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/oh…
