Investigating the Neural Correlates of Cervical Dystonia and Temporal Discrimination using Neuroimaging based Computational Modelling and Multimodal Pattern Recognition
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Electronic & Elect. Engineering, 2020)Movement disorders, such as Parkinson s disease and Dystonia, have traditionally been considered as disorders of impaired motor control resulting predominantly from dysfunction of the Basal Ganglia. However, there has been ... -
Measuring physical function in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis: Novel solutions to an old problem
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Mechanical & Manuf. Eng, 2023)Sensitive, objective outcome measures are essential for tracking clinical severity in neurodegenerative conditions such as Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis or Parkinson’s Disease. The current ‘gold standard’ multi-item rating ... -
Probing the neural mechanisms of adult-onset isolated focal dystonia
(Trinity College Dublin. School of Engineering. Discipline of Electronic & Elect. Engineering, 2018)Adult onset isolated focal dystonia (AOIFD) is inherited in an autosomal dominant manner with a reduced penetrance of 12-15%; cervical dystonia (CD) is the most common phenotype in northern Europe. It is believed that the ...
