Published in 2024 at "Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology"

DOI: 10.1002/acn3.52024

Abstract: Voluntary upper limb movements are an ecologically important yet insufficiently explored digital‐motor outcome domain for trials in degenerative ataxia. We extended and validated the trial‐ready quantitative motor assessment battery “Q‐Motor” for upper limb movements with… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "American Journal of Human Biology"

DOI: 10.1002/ajhb.70010

Abstract: Sexual selection via contest competition has equipped countless organisms with weaponry in their appendages to overpower their opponents. Here, we tested (1) whether greater upper limb length—measured as span controlling for biacromial width—confers an advantage… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Brain and Behavior"

DOI: 10.1002/brb3.1742

Abstract: Stroke survivors often experience upper‐limb motor deficits and achieve limited motor recovery within six months after the onset of stroke. We aimed to systematically review the effects of robot‐assisted therapy (RT) in comparison to usual… read more here.
