We're delighted to be collaborating with @uniofwarwick on a brand new engineering-related project. Data collection is underway for Pedestrian evaluation of structural vibration (aka SENSATION), which is funded by the @HorizonEU MSCA Postdoctoral Fellowship - UK Guarantee scheme

We're pleased to announce a cutting-edge project with Research Fellow Sonia from the @ExeterBRC. Mind the Gap will see how people respond to challenging situations by studying postural responses in immersive environments. Learn more about the project at: lnkd.in/e8V_WBdr

We hosted engineering A-level students from all over the South West in a schools outreach visit. The students experienced being on a train and a boat via our moving floor, explored underneath the platform and took part in three group tasks using the sensors and force plates.

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
ISPGR@ISPGR

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/Yuri-R…

Our Senior Experimental Officer James and Experimental Officer Garry were at @NIRx_NIRS in Berlin, learning how to use wearable device NIRSport 2, which uses Functional Near-Infrared Spectroscopy for brain imaging. This will be used for research at our @UniofExeter facility

We have 2 PhD studentships to work on an ERC funded project led by @SallieLamb18 We will simulate situations where older adults often fall @v_simulators 1 PhD will focus on biomechanics & the other on the influence of sensory integration & cognition on balance/gait. DL=2nd April
NIHR Exeter Biomedical Research Centre (BRC)@ExeterBRC

#PhD opportunity to join a world-leading falls prevention research team on prestigious STEPPING OUT project led by @SallieLamb18 & work with experimental psychologists, biomechanists, physiotherapists and mathematicians at #ExeterBRC >Details & apply: exeter.ac.uk/study/funding/…

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.

Well done to #PhD student Nimmy Abraham, an Engineering category finalist in @STEM4Brit. She was at the House of Commons yesterday to present a poster of her abstract about using VSimulators @UniofExeter to explore the dynamics of rhythmic jumping subjected to vertical vibrations

We are exploring the effects of anxiety on balance in simulated environments such as trains, developing a protocol to be applied to patient groups such as older people concerned about falling, people with Parkinson's @ParkinsonsUK and people with multiple sclerosis

We're supporting a PhD student project to look at whether exploratory movements are still preserved during gait initiation in the absence of visual information with eyes opened and eyes closed in healthy adults.
