Also worth celebrating the news that @Yr_Russo has just secured another Research Fellow position here at @ExeterBRC to continue his work on ageing, Parkinson's and falls for another 4 years! @ERC_Research @SallieLamb18
Let’s celebrate our early-career researchers. Today, we will introduce you to @Yr_Russo, a postdoc @UniofExeter who focuses his work on the neuromechanical investigation of the transient phases of gait in normal and neurological populations. Check more: researchgate.net/profile/Yur…

CFCM's Experimental Officer Joe attended the Powerboat 2 Training Course at @SeaSports_SW. This training will support our projects around alternatively powered boats.
Alongside Joe, this course was also attended by James Bassitt from @v_simulators and Kirsty Frith in @CREWW_uk.

In today's blog post, we are diving into the science behind cueing. Cueing serves as a valuable approach to managing motor symptoms associated with Parkinson’s.

Great morning visiting @v_simulators with @ExeterBRC to see some of the fantastic kit they have including motion capture, EMG and VR to name but a few.
Amazing possibilities for research in surgical patients and their rehabilitation.
