DOI: 10.1007/s00221-024-06973-x
Abstract: Current clinical assessment tools don’t fully capture the genuine neural deficits experienced by chronic stroke survivors and, consequently, they don’t fully explain motor function throughout everyday life. Towards addressing this problem, here we aimed to… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2018.06.014
Abstract: Background: Sex‐related neuromuscular differences have been linked to greater risk of anterior cruciate ligament injuries in females. Despite this, it remains unclear if sex‐related differences are present after injury. This study sought to determine if… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tbme.2022.3150422
Abstract: Functional muscle network is a critical concept in describing functional synergistic muscle synchronization and functional connectivity needed for the execution of complex motor tasks. Muscle network is typically derived from decomposition of intermuscular coherence (IMC)… read more here.
