ID 2454: Sensor-based Measurement of Fear Avoidance in Chronic Primary Lower Back Pain during Standardized Movement Tasks

Bachelor's / Master's Thesis / Research Internship / Project 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...

ID 2453: Monitoring prodromal hyperkinetic movements using body worn sensors in Huntington’s Disease

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 ...

ID 2452: Neural Network-Based Detection of Gait Battery Tests in Unsupervised Home Recordings

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...
