Cluster Trainee Eveline Pasman respresented the OBDAF Cluster at a University Neighbourhoods Association event. She demonstrated one of the measurement devices used by the cluster to objectively assess balance in our research participants. Eveline carried out short balance tests using the equipment on particpants at the event. This important research can be used to identify the origins of balance deficits in those with balance disorders such as Parkison's Disease.
