Excited to share a new paper where we performed an investigation of subcortical GM markers of conversion to freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease.

Our new paper shows promising effects of a single-session of split-belt treadmill walking on dual-task turning and walking in healthy elderly and people with Parkinson's - out in @FrontNeurol

New paper showing that people with Parkinson's disease and Freezing of Gait improve adaptation after a single session of split-belt treadmill walking.

Great collaboration with @janasth1, Christian Schlenstedt and Team @AliceNieuwboer @GinisPieter @FHulzinga @KULeuvenPT

We're preparing to release #fMRIPrep 20.2, which will be a long-term support (LTS) release. LTS means this version of fMRIPrep will be supported for five years, to provide a stable preprocessing base for long-running studies. 1/

Ons jaarlijkse #Bike4Parkinson evenement moet dit jaar vanwege COVID-19 helaas anders. Zie in mijn videoboodschap hoe mensen met #Parkinson, professionals, familie, vrienden en naasten dit jaar tòch samen voor het goede doel gaan fietsen, en hoe jij daar ook aan kan bijdragen!

People are excited about the many benefits of the so-called “Mediterranean diet”. But what is in fact a Mediterranean diet and how does it affect your brain? This blog can help.

Cilia et al. examine the effects of long-term levodopa on motor disability progression in the overnight OFF-state in #Parkinson's disease. Compared to natural progression, levodopa reduces annual decline in OFF-state UPDRS-III by almost one third. https://t.co/sNoN1KBnL6

Recently published systematic review with meta-analysis of postural control functional neuroimaging studies shows the anterior cerebellum a consistent player, despite range of study methods.

The Julich-Brain atlas—a virtual, 3D map of the complex cellular and structural architecture of the brain, provides a valuable and highly flexible tool for understanding human neurobiology, researchers report in Science. Learn more: ($) https://t.co/6nN7j31da1

Ever wondered how the human brain controls posture?? 🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️⏭ Check out our systematic review with ALE-meta analysis by @bwdijkstra and colleagues from @KULeuvenPT Spoiler alert: it's a #cerebellum story. https://t.co/lJQpTV6M6U

[Bauke Dijkstra @bwdijkstra]

Very happy that our systematic review with ALE meta-analysis on the neural control of posture is out now! https://t.co/FZtVar0W8P

[Moran Gilat @MoranGilat]

Our review on the role of Virtual Reality in the research and rehabilitation of Parkinson's is now available @NatRevNeurol. A lot of potential wins to be gained still! With Prof Canning and co from @Sydney_Uni and @KULeuvenPT

@crisimmar @hessovalais Congratulations Christina!!

[Femke Hulzinga @FHulzinga]

Very happy that recently our paper got published in @MDCP_Journal giving some important implications about the responsiveness of the NFOG-Q:"The New Freezing of Gait Questionnaire: Unsuitable as an Outcome in Clinical Trials?" https://t.co/uzAE7kpH60 @GinisPieter @AliceNieuwboer

Terugkijken: In de special over #Parkinson praten we o.a. met @Robdenijs zijn vrouw Henriëtte over Robs diagnose. Ernst Daniël Smid hield lange tijd zijn mond, maar vertelt bij #Pauw voor het eerst het verhaal over zijn Parkinsondiagnose. 👇

Lancering DBS select door @HealthHouseBE, een interactief educatieplatform om potentiële diepe hersenstimulatie kandidaten over DBS te informeren.

[Health House @HealthHouseBE]

Last night we launched DBS Select, the first interactive patient education platform on Deep Brain Stimulation. Developed in collaboration with @EITHealth @KU_Leuven @UZLeuven @UKKoeln. Full story: https://t.co/s5TZHYgKD5

[Moran Gilat @MoranGilat]

Finally!! A free and open source software to visually score freezing of gait (FOG) from video. See my published article in @journal_PD - (https://t.co/VCycZUw1CJ) and download the FOG-scoring template and user guide for free from: https://t.co/sgpsm8SIFX

Great way to end #ispgr2019 @MoranGilat @demizoetewei @FHulzinga @GinisPieter A week full of very interesting research, learned a lot! Aim to be active on Twitter from now on too! #firsttweet

[Moran Gilat @MoranGilat]

Our systematic review with exploratory ALE-meta analysis provides further support that PD patients rely on the cerebellar locomotor region to control their gait! @bwdijkstra, @profsimonlewis et al.
