Matt Bancroft

Delighted to have contributed to a chapter on Voluntary steps and gait initiation. It summarises the Throw and Catch model of human stepping and provides new evidence with data from my PhD thesis sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@paulyoz2ahughes @evertonspares I'm interested - follow me back so we can DM

2 spares for Brighton @evertonspares

Bancroft et al. report head movements away from neutral increase intracranial pressure and pulsatility, effects varying by posture and shunt status. This may guide smart shunt design and symptom management. Read at buff.ly/XHhSnNC @battmancroft @EleanorMoncur @AhmedToma13

@RealFokuz @EvertonNewsFeed @evertonspares @LivEchoEFC @Hanstours Interested - follow me back to DM

Two spares in the away end tomorrow. Can meet at the ground #everton @EvertonNewsFeed @evertonspares @LivEchoEFC @Hanstours

4 year PhD (apply by 19th July) on visual system vulnerability to neurodegenerative disease. tinyurl.com/3mt4xc5v Understand susceptibility to 'brainsight' loss in the largest imaging study (UK Biobank) & in visual-led dementia @drcionucl @RareDementia @UCLIoN @CombineLab

My colleagues Emma Harding, @KeirYong & @mindmodels have created this free resource - it contains dozens of practical tips & strategies that people with #PosteriorCorticalAtrophy have told us that they find useful in daily life: pcatips.org #MadeatUCL #PCA

We have a 3-year Research Fellow for Development of a Novel Vestibular Diagnostic position available in the School of Sport, Exercise and Rehabilitation Sciences. If you are interested, please click the link below. Closing date is 30/06/2024. jobs.ac.uk/job/DHM170/res…

Thanks to @BrainAppeal for funding the work and congrats to @EleanorMoncur on a 1st first author paper

A greater increase in ICP during movement might be a marker of disturbed ICP regulation. The increase in ICP during movement might cause brief CSF 'over-drainage' in shunted individuals. Our findings may inform the design of the long-awaited ‘smart shunt’.

New paper from me and @QSNeurosurgery colleagues out in @BrainSpineJ Ambulatory intracranial pressure in humans: ICP increases during movement between body positions. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

📢Looking for a neuro physio to join clinical research team at Queen Square @MDC_IoN_UCL! Fascinating research questions across subtypes of movement disorders, training in wireless EMG and motion capture, 2 year full-time research role, apply by 8 jan! @CAHPR_London @LondonACPIN

Congratulations to @KeirYong for winning the Research Community Award.

Fantastic poster presentation from @battmancroft ! Fascinating study exploring the effects on vision in PCA #AAIC23 #ASatAAIC23

It's also up for the postdoctoral poster competition prize - wish me luck!

Interested in upper limb function in typical and atypical Alzheimer's disease? Come check out my poster today - P1-043! #AAIC2023 I'll be talking about work me, @KeirYong and colleagues have done in posterior cortical atrophy (PCA) on reaching to visual targets
