Movement control and rehabilitation
Data from an animal model of chronic large-fibre deafferentation and peripheral sensory neuropathy are used to investigate the severe motor dysfunction that results from experimentally induced sensory loss and to explore the scope of neuromotor rehabilitation based on new methods of motor retraining.
The methods used include:
- Chronic and acute electrophysiology
- Kinematic and behavioural analysis of motor patterns
- Histology and morphometry of sensory neurons
- Labelling and morphometric analysis of functionally identified single neurons
- In mathematical modeling studies
- In morphometric investigations
