@jordanhanna02 Is spatial discrimination also controlled by the Right Hemisphere of the brain?

#EXS3030 Following a recent spinal cord injury, Drake experiences a lack of body awareness with gait related activities. Which spinal tract was most likely damaged?

#EXS3030 Assignment #9 HAL: New Technology for People with Spinal Cord Injuries https://t.co/ijCqta7543

@ReeseRuhlman This is an amazing piece of technology! It’s so encouraging to see how the small things he can still do is being utilized to improve his quality of life!

#EXS3030 I saw this promo featured in Michael Fox’s interview, and it gave me a good laugh! https://t.co/03OggMIf6Z
You can see Muhammad Ali exhibit a few symptoms of Parkinson’s disease during this promo, such as arm tremors and facial muscle rigidity.

[Jen Starnes @StarnesJen]

@PombierCallum Thank you for sharing this information about resting tremors. I have never heard of them before, and assumed that all PD tremors stayed present regardless of the person’s body position.

[Jen Starnes @StarnesJen]

@TomicaNatalie I loved this video! It was so sweet to see his entire mannerisms change when the music started, on top of his PD symptoms. I believe our brains love music and makes it easier to match our movements to the beats we hear, helping our brains make more connections!

@docgoble The player knew he was receiving a pass and his frontal cortex made a plan for how to catch the football. It started with jumping over the defender, and even after he missed the catch the first time, his brain stuck with the plan and decided on other ways to catch the ball (0:25)

[Jen Starnes @StarnesJen]

@docgoble This video is an impressive example of Markkanen’s proprioception system. His proprioceptirs in his muscles are able to communicate the joint angles of his arm and hand to his brain so that he can make the precise movement to complete the dunk!

[Jen Starnes @StarnesJen]

@aronj702 This is a fascinating video! I wonder what kind of signal the microchip in the brain uses to move his fingers if it is not an electrical signal. I’m interested in researching this device more!

#EXS3030 https://t.co/PsFuER436R This video is from EGZO Tech describing their Luna EMG that is used in physical therapy for patients with neurological and orthopedic conditions.

[Jen Starnes @StarnesJen]

@2020Boobie Awesome video, Dustin! I have seen weightlifters on YouTube and such show how many tedious repetitions it takes to master all the movements for a power clean. This is definitely an advanced and impressive demonstration of motor control! #ohyeahhhh 😄

[Jen Starnes @StarnesJen]

You can check out his account on TikTok to watch his amazing journey!!!

[Jen Starnes @StarnesJen]

#EXS3030 Here is a diverse and impressive example of motor control done by a 3-year old! He was born with many developmental conditions, and demonstrates motor learning in physical therapy by being able to stand upright and balance independently.

I’m taking #EXS3030 @OaklanduSHS with @docgoble because I hope to work at a Physical Therapist in the future and this class will give me essential information about how the human body works that I will need to treat patients and help people in my career!
