Really fantastic to see so much interest in Naveed E Saba ‘s PhD research investigating the effect of #age on #muscle #mri & #emg metrics ISPGR

Lisa Alcock busy presenting her work on the influence of walking aid use on falls in the home environment in people with Parkinson's Come check out her work at #ISPGR2023 poster P2-N-48

I’m so proud of @Emma__Packer! TWO oral presentations at her first conference! And she’s only in her first year of her PhD 😮 She presented so well and I’m so excited to see the amazing places her career is going to go 🌏 ISPGR #ISPGR BAM Research Group

Is real-world #gait variability associated with patient reported outcomes of fatigue and sleep disturbances? Chloe Hinchliffe presents her findings from the IDEA-FAST-Project feasibility study at #ISPGR2023! Fai Ng ISPGR BAM Research Group

Everything ready for #ISPGR2023 symposium 7! Looking forward to the talks by Winfried Ilg Lisa Alcock @RionaMcArdle Martina Mancini and to hearing all about #turning outcomes as a sensitive marker in #movement disorders. BAM Research Group NIHR Newcastle BRC Parkinson's UK Graduate School FMS NCL

After 1 year of either home- or gym-based resistance training, only 41% of older adults (>65 yr) managed to keep training over the next 6 months. But of those who continued, 1 or more session per week was enough to offset losses of muscle mass compared to stopping completely.

We have had a really fantastic response to our #PDMedTools survey 🙏👏 If you have Parkinson's, we are keen to hear from you - have your say & enhance our understanding of complex #medication regimes in #Parkinson's 💊 📢Please spread the word📢 🙏Retweets much appreciated🙏

I have two PhD student positions available. One will start Jan 2024 and the other to start in August 2024. Read the Biomch-L post for full details. BlackBiomechanists Latinx In Biomechanix American Society of Biomechanics IntSoc Biomechanics ACSM_BIG ISBS biomch-l.isbweb.org/forum/biomch-l…

Come along to this exciting workshop if you would like to know more about MMG and its potential organised by Neuranics at 📍: ARC, University of Glasgow 🗓 : 9th October 2024 Registration link is in the post below 👇 #MMG #Workshop #Neuranics #ARCGlasgow #UofGlasgow

Educate your patients about the importance of muscle strength 🦵 Prevent #sarcopenia by building muscle in youth and maintaining it in middle age to reduce muscle loss as we age. BUT it is never too late to benefit from improving muscle strength. Here's why👇 🧵Thread

The age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass and function👇🏼 Muscle fibre loss is associated with denervation & remodelling of motor units #muscle #ageing sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

🌟 What a night filled with memories and delicious food at NP☄’s goodbye dinner party! Farewell, Noe, you'll be missed! 🥂👋

Thanks to everyone who attended! I have had some great discussions on the influence of #physcial #activity on muscles irrespective of age based on #MRI findings from my #PhD Project at #BioMedEng23 funded by RISE-WELL

Such informative talk on importance of translational ageing research by Prof. @AvanSayer at #ISTRC2023

What an insightful talk on #obesity, #body #composition and #sarcopenia by Prof. David Scott from Deakin University at International Sarcopenia Translational Research #ISTRC2023

There are some interesting discussions about #EMG and #MRI metrices to access #muscle #physiology at my poster today at International Sarcopenia Translational Research #ISTRC2023 Special thanks to RISE-WELL for funding my #PhD and travel to conferences

Off to a really good start this morning at #MMG workshop!

Come and visit our demo in Zone 3!
