Fear avoidance (FA) beliefs (i.e. movements may lead to pain/injury) motivate patients with chronic primary low back pain (CPLBP) to avoid physical activity and may thereby contribute to the maintenance of pain and disability. Patients’ c...
Huntington's disease (HD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder that affects movement, cognition, and emotion. It is characterized by the gradual degeneration of neurons in the brain, particularly in regions responsible for motor control and coordination. The disease often begins in ...
One of the primary methods for assessing gait and mobility in patients with Parkinson's Disease (PD) is through gait battery tests. These tests are typically conducted in clinical settings under the supervision of experts who interpret the symptoms and assess disease severity. However, these evaluat...

Acute stress reliably activates, among other pathways, the sympathetic nervous system, leading to changes in heart rate (variability) (HR and HRV), respiration, pre-ejection period (PEP), and electrodermal activity (EDA). So far, these pa...
Background:
In Germany, prenatal visits for normal-risk pregnancies are every 2-4 weeks. This low time resolution and reliance on subjective feedback instead of direct physiological measurement, could be augmented by remote monitoring. To date, continuous physiological measurements have not been ...
This work aims to investigate and analyze the intriguing properties exhibited by foundation models in deep learning, including vision, natural language processing (NLP), and multimodal models. The research intends to provide a comprehensive understanding of these properties to enhance the reliabilit...
Diagnosis of patients with Atypical Parkinsonism using IMUs:
Project:
Atypical Parkinsonism syndromes such as Multiple system atrophy (MSA) and Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) are rare conditions that often are misdiagnosed as Idiopathic Parkinson disease (IPD).
The aim of this project...
