This is an overview of the sensorimotor impairments in dystonia, a syndrome characterized
by sustained or intermittent aberrant movement patterns leading to abnormal movements …

We present the development of a novel smart ink pen instrumented with force and motion
sensors designed for the quantitative and ecological assessment of daily-life handwriting …

Childhood dystonia is a movement disorder characterized by muscle overflow and
variability. This is the first study that investigates upper limb muscle synergies in childhood …

For the healthy motor control system, an essential regulatory role is maintaining the
equilibrium between keeping unwanted motor variability in check whilst allowing informative …

Muscle synergies are defined as coordinated recruitment of groups of muscles with specific
activation balances and time profiles aimed at generating task-specific motor commands …

The design of myocontrolled devices faces particular challenges in children with dyskinetic
cerebral palsy because the electromyographic signal for control contains both voluntary and …

Abstract Background Movement Disorders (MD) are a class of disease that impair the daily
activities of patients, conditioning their sensorimotor, cognitive and behavioural capabilities …

Abstract 'Yips' is an involuntary movement disorder seen in some professional golfers. The
diagnostic challenge in yips is to distinguish symptoms of task-specific dystonia from …

We tested the ability of a synergy-based myocontrol scheme to achieve simultaneous,
continuous control of two degrees of freedom (DOFs) of a robotic arm that reproduces the …

Clinical movement disorders are classified by an algorithm implemented by a practising
movement disorder specialist based on information extracted during the history and clinical …
