We have just published this pre-print. doi: doi.org/10.1101/2025.... We show that linear and angular momentum are both controlled during bipedal walking. This study resulted from discussions we had on the use of foot placement to stabilise gait. Comments and suggestions are welcome.

Just in time for your Christmas reading list: new preprint with Yang Geng and @jvandieen.bsky.social: “ Upright stance is controlled close to critical stability across different postures” (www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...) feedback welcome!

I am actively recruiting several PhD students to join my lab at UMass Amherst (you can apply as ME, BME, or CICS) to work on wearable robotics for walking/running and neuromotor control (primitives for action generation and perception)! Shoot me an email if you're interested!

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.

I have started my sabbatical in Nice to wind down a bit and to learn from Francois Hug on motor unit decomposition. This also gave me the time to finally leave Twitter (as I still prefer to call it) and start on Bluesky. So far this looks promising.
