Patient and public involvement (PPI) in research has increased steadily over the last two decades and is now both expected and appropriately resourced by many funding bodies, including the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR). However, PPI i... Read More about The mutual benefits of patient and public involvement in research: an example from a feasibility study (MoTaStim-Foot).

Age suit simulation replicates in healthy young adults the functional challenges to balance experienced by older adults: an observational study (2021)
Journal Article
Watkins, C., & Hunter, S. (2021). Age suit simulation replicates in healthy young adults the functional challenges to balance experienced by older adults: an observational study. BMJ Simulation and Technology Enhanced Learning, 581 - 585. https://doi.org/10.1136/bmjstel-2021-000867

BackgroundAge simulation can have a positive effect on empathic understanding and perception of ageing. However, there is limited evidence for its ability to replicate objectively the physical and functional challenges of ageing.ObjectiveTo observe w...

Sensory Stimulation of the Foot and Ankle Early Post-stroke: A Pilot and Feasibility Study (2021)
Journal Article
Aries, A., Pomeroy, V., Sim, J., Read, S., & Hunter, S. (2021). Sensory Stimulation of the Foot and Ankle Early Post-stroke: A Pilot and Feasibility Study. Frontiers in Neurology, https://doi.org/10.3389/fneur.2021.675106

Background: Somatosensory stimulation of the lower extremity could improve motor recovery and walking post-stroke. This pilot study investigated the feasibility of a subsequent randomized controlled trial (RCT) to determine whether task-specific gait...
