Leuk! VU alumni Bewegingswetenschappen VU FBW VU Faculteit der Gedrags- & Bewegingswetenschappen Moira van Leeuwen Moira in AD.nl

Exciting new vacancy: workingat.vu.nl/vacancies/depa…

First paper of Yiyuan Li's PhD project, in which we show how paraspinal muscles respond to vestibular stimulation during walking, now available on-line. Well done Yiyuan. Very proud of you. physoc.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1113/JP…

Come work with us VU FBW; PhD position: Modelling the energetics of muscle contraction. werkenbij.vu.nl/vacatures/phd-…

Wait it’s not Wednesday, and StrikerBee is missing (he’s sick.. :-(). Heleen B💉ersteker and me have new company though… and not only for climbing :- D welcome Renee!!

It’s that time of year again…. #bm100. For those that know… you know. For those that don’t… where to start. Maybe watch the documentary #17 on YouTube …:-)

#smalleuropeanwoman ftw!!!! Wow!

Congrats dr. JinFang（金芳） :) #one_tweet_a_day

Congratulations to the PhDs (Moira, Nina van Mastrigt, & Kirsten Veerkamp) of our faculty for being selected as finalists of VvBN thesis award 2023 :) vvbn.org/finalisten-vvb…

I am recruiting two PhD students to work on proprioception in an FWO funded projects. Spread the word: kuleuven.be/personeel/jobs…

Happy that I had the opportunity to visit Jesse Dean's lab during my PhD to gain new research experience, play basketball and find interesting new findings that have now been published here (also with Sjoerd Bruijn): doi.org/10.1016/j.humo… Poetic summary below ;) #one_tweet_a_day

We are excited to publish the article on the external validation of fall prediction models! Many studies use IMU gait features to predict prospective falls, but none has been externally validated, yet crucial. See more👇 #fallsprevention #aging #healthtech jamda.com/article/S1525-…

Every time you publish about how good your new algorithm is, without making said algorithm openly available in some sort way or form, a puppy dies. STOP KILLING PUPPIES!

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…

New work from JinFang（金芳）, Andreas Daffertshofer and me. In which we show that it's incredibly hard (impossible?) to predict whether an MEP will be elicited in a subject from the position, orientation and intensity of the MEP: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Examples now include calculating (+checking) gait events from - Centre of pressure data - Vertical ground reaction force - Kinematics - VU 3D model data structure - Foot markers - Vertical position and vel -Ap position

All examples are now also in Python. For reading C3D in Python, I used ezc3d by Pierre Puchaud, which was really simple to implement (and I might implement the Matlab version as well some day, instead of the code I have there now )
