Research Interests
Open to PhD applications examining the neural control of balance, gait, and cognition across ageing and Parkinson’s disease. Current projects include identifying mobile EEG biomarkers of freezing of gait in Parkinson’s disease to predict fall risk and guide adaptive therapies, and investigating cognitive-motor set-shifting in older adults to understand how attention and flexibility support balance under dual-task demands. Students will gain training in mobile EEG, motion capture, and behavioural neuroscience.
