Joris Boulo talking about the affects of an inactive lifestyle on one's daily locomotor ability such as navigating crowds. If you are interested in the VR platform used that included collaboration with @anneheleneolivier.bsky.social, come see us.

Great discussions during and after thanks to all attending

Thank you Melvyn. I am very honored, especially to receive this from a society so near and dear to my heart.

Thank you Kim.

Looking forward to seeing you all in a few days time and hearing all about the exciting new work in the areas of posture and gait (and everything between!) #ISPGR2025

My colleague Jon Warne and two of our excellent MSc Physiotherapy students are conducting a survey on inclusion health They’re specifically interested in awareness and knowledge of inclusion health groups among health and social workers Completing/sharing the survey would be highly appreciated!

Happy to share Joris Boulo's newest pub showing that an inactive lifestyle influences how we plan and execute the circumvention of another pedestrian. Stay tuned for the added influence of ageing as well as crowded environments. 👇 pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/39825960/
