Sabbatical Céline Gillebert: Neuropsychological rehabilitation in patients with mild cognitive impairment KU Leuven
Attentional impairments in neurological populations have long been treated as being less critical than physical impairments, and a patient’s need for care packages is still heavily informed by physical needs alone. This stems from a medical emphasis on physical recovery, but equally there is a substantial lack of knowledge about the impact of cognitive impairments on daily functioning and there is no good evidence for linking cognitive ...

The evolution of arthrogenic muscle responses after ACL reconstruction and the effects of cognitive dual tasks in rehabilitation KU Leuven
After anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, altered muscle responses around the knee joint are seen, known as arthrogenic muscle responses (AMR). Despite their initially protective function, prolonged presence of these AMR may potentially lead to knee joint pathomechanics, which in turn could contribute to an increased risk of early knee osteoarthritis. In the first part of this study, we aim to investigate which factors could ...

Characterizing the attentional mechanism of multisensory synchronous stimulation to improve the rehabilitation of unilateral spatial neglect. KU Leuven
Stroke is a frequent and severe neurological condition that can lead to persistent problems. Patients can experience difficulties in moving their limbs or may experience trouble with their speech. In addition to these more salient problems, more subtle impairments in cognitive functions may also be present. For instance, some patients may have difficulties orienting their attention towards stimuli on one side of the environment. This ...
