Trainees

Our OBDAF cluster trainees are working in internationally-recognized labs, under the supervision of experts in the study of human balance and mobility. Our research examines the sensori-motor, orthopaedic, psychological and neurological factors that contribute to fall risk in older adults, and individuals with Parkinson's disease, stroke, multiple sclerosis, vestibular loss, and traumatic brain injury. This resource highlights different labs and techniques that each trainee has experience with.
