EP 84. Motor control and learning strategy for efficient neurorehabilitation

Parkinson ’s, stroke, and other neurological diseases may significantly affect the control of voluntary, ballistic-like movements that normally are performed automatically and optimally as regards position accuracy, energy expenditure and movement execution time. The control functions (neural signals to mus cles) are to be re-learnt and re-optimised with respect to these performance indices. In our study, a natural approach for efficient motor learning in goal-directed motion tasks, incl. walking is proposed.
