😃 A new article published in J Biomech by Godin et al suggest that for kinematics assessment of running, 16-352 steps are needed for spatio-temporal parameters, 16-400 steps for linear measurements, and 336-704 steps for non-linear measurements. 👀 buff.ly/ZdoVe50 #BiomechSky

Et demain à 16h ? L’activité des cerveaux d’individus peut se synchroniser lors d’une interaction, comme le toucher affectif chez un couple. Les mécanismes sous-jacents restent encore méconnus. Comment la technique de l’hyperscanning permet-elle d’étudier cette synchronie ? Comment l'interpréter ?

University of Lausanne is on the Stand Up For Science map! Only university in Switzerland to participate, it seems. France has a LOT more than shown, see link below. Find one near you! We are in Géopolis 2121 , 7.03.2025, 12-1pm. standupforscience2025.org standupforscience.fr

Pleased to have contributed to this new book published today with our chapter: "How Older Adults Can Avoid Falls via Proactive and Reactive Gait Adaptability: A Brief Introduction" The published chapter: link.springer.com/chapter/10.1... & the #openaccess preprint here: osf.io/preprints/os...

Walking is an essential part of life- yet we do not know how the nervous system generates the underlying neural programs. Please find our sneak-peek preprint on neural generation of locomotion in the mouse: biorxiv.org/content/10.1... Pan-neuronal one-spot tracks in lumbar cord w clearing & LSM

This stark profit disparity highlights the challenges in promoting sustainable transportation. How can we incentivize walking and cycling when car and air travel, fueled by the highly profitable petrol industry, remain the dominant modes of transport?

Just updated my code to stream (acc, gyr, mag, etc) data from your phone to Matlab, so that it also works with newer versions of Android. Want to do some fun measurements with your phone, check it out! github.com/SjoerdBruijn...

I'm sure this Science story on how systematic reviews are threatened by paper mills is good, but the illustration by Sara Gironi Carnevale is great saragironicarnevale.com Story: https://www.science.org/content/article/systematic-reviews-aim-extract-broad-conclusions-many-studies-are-peril

First 'proper' post here (and a lazy quote repost at that :D). New paper published in J Neuroscience. Here we explore the neural mechanisms underpinning the paradoxical decreases in stability that occur when people try to consciously control balance. www.jneurosci.org/content/44/4...

Anyone else noticed the Chrome Zotero Connector for automatically saving PDFs of a currently-open article doesn't work for Elsevier articles specifically, even when open access? Elsevier often (always?) requires a captcha now.

Just noticed that the Gait & Posture guidelines no longer include the statement regarding sample size justification introduced between 2018 and 2019 that sparked our analysis. Wonder what went into that decision?

This paper is just out: doi.org/10.7717/peer.... We found that balance training on unstable surfaces in older adults does improve feedback responses to balance perturbations. Effects suggest that this may be mainly due to a decrease in muscle activation reducing an overshoot in the responses.

Grant agency: "In the end, despite some initial enthusiasm, the panel was not convinced [...], and expected that the impact in the field is likely to be low." Despite evidence to the contrary, funding bodies remain confident they can predict the success of a project. elifesciences.org/articles/13323
