The discovery of neuronal systems dedicated to computing spatial information, composed of
functionally distinct cell types such as place and grid cells, combined with an extensive body …

Bodily awareness is a central component of human sensation, action, and cognition. The
human body is subject to profound changes over the adult lifespan. We live in an aging …

Distinguishing dementia subtypes can be difficult due to similarities in clinical presentation.
There is increasing interest in discrete gait characteristics as markers to aid diagnostic …

Background Cognitive-motor interference (CMI) is a common deficit in Alzheimer's (AD)
disease and Parkinson's disease (PD) and may have utility in identification of prodromal …

Background. Decreased automaticity is common among individuals with neurodegenerative
disease and is often assessed using dual-task (DT) paradigms. However, the best methods …

Obstacle crossing requires visuospatial working memory to guide the trailing leg trajectory
when vision in unavailable. Visuospatial working memory, as assessed with …

Spatial cognition is known to decline with aging. However, little is known about whether
training can reduce or eliminate age-related deficits in spatial memory. We investigated …

Abstract Background Children with Developmental Coordination Disorder (DCD) exhibit
deficits in predictive motor control, balance, and aspects of cognitive control, which are …

Recent studies have shown that gait synchronization during natural walking is not merely
anecdotal, but it is a repeatable phenomenon that is quantifiable and is apparently related to …

Gait variability may serve as a sensitive and clinically relevant parameter to quantify
adjustments in walking and the changes with aging and neurological disease. Variability of …
