The flexion or flexor reflex (FR) recorded in the lower limbs in humans (LLFR) is a widely
investigated neurophysiological tool. It is a polysynaptic and multisegmental spinal …

Standing and walking require a plethora of sensorimotor interactions that occur throughout
the nervous system. Sensory afferent feedback plays a crucial role in the rhythmical muscle …

Background While the neural and mechanical effects of whole nerve cutaneous stimulation
on human locomotion have been previously studied, there is less information about effects …

Reactive locomotor adaptations are crucial for safe mobility, but remain relatively
unexplored. Here we assess reactive gait adaptations, and their retention, savings and …

A large proportion of stroke survivors have to deal with problems in mobility. Proper
evaluations must be undertaken to understand the sensorimotor impairments underlying …

The present studies were carried out at the Center for Sensory-Motor Interaction (SMI),
Aalborg University, in the period from 1994 to 2005. I am most grateful to all co-authors for …

Background Gait deficits are very common after stroke and improved therapeutic
interventions are needed. The objective of this study was therefore to investigate the …

Testing of reflexes such as flexion/withdrawal or licking/guarding is well established as the
standard for evaluating nociceptive sensitivity and its modulation in preclinical investigations …

Mechanisms of motor deficits (eg hemiparesis and hemiplegia) secondary to stroke and
traumatic brain injury remain poorly understood. In early animal studies, a unilateral lesion …

This study aims to investigate the effect of a somatosensory cueing on gait disorders in
subjects with Parkinson's disease (PD). After having performed stepping in place and timed …
