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.

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.

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

In today's blog post, we are diving into the science behind cueing. Cueing serves as a valuable approach to managing motor symptoms associated with Parkinson’s.

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.

We were pleased to welcome our collaborative partners from @VerityXr and @OxfordBRC to our @uniofexeter facility at @ExeterSciencePk to experience our motion platform and headset virtual reality. Academics from @ExeterMed are working with them on experiments in pain and movement.
