Time definetly flies! Already in my fourth week at NIPS 😊
It was great to attend the joint instituational (NIPS-BRI-EHUB) symposia yesterday and see a range of research topics and a great poster session ! Additionally, I was happy and enthusiatic to have seen work on pitch perception, as well as socio-behavioural movement synchronisation studies represented 😃

This new year, I’ve decided to embark on an exciting professional opportunity, being hosted by Prof. Keiichi Kitajo at the National Institute for Physiological Sciences in Okazaki 🌏 As I am settling into what will be my new home for the next 3 months, I am looking forward to embrace the growth this experience will bring upon, to dive into the science💡as well as the unique experiences and culture Japan has to offer 💫.
I thank Prof. Peter Feys Faculteit Revalidatiewetenschappen UHasselt for supporting my pursuits, Prof. Keiichi Kitajo and his team for the warm welcome and Research Foundation Flanders – FWO for funding my stay.
Here’s to a journey of growth, discovery, and inspiration! 🌸

I am super happy to share our published paper, which stemmed as a result of a fruitful collaboration between the disciplines of neurology and rehabilitation, data science and engineering! Muhammad Bergas Nur Fayyad @Anna Ivanova Joeri Verbiest Mario Manto.
In this work, we present a methodological solution to quantify behavioural dynamics of auditory-motor coupling during walking in patients with cerebellar ataxia and healthy controls based on feature derivation and classification, with relevance for precision and personalised rehabilitation.

🎉 Congratulations to dr. Mieke GOETSCHALCKX on successfully defending her thesis on interlimb coordination and auditory-motor synchronisation during walking and running in Children with Developmental Coordination Disoder (DCD) 🎉
Mieke was the first PhD candidate I had the privilege to guide as a co-promoter, marking the start of an incredible journey of interdisciplinary promoter team within the Neuro Peter Feys and Paeds Eugene Rameckers groups in Faculteit Revalidatiewetenschappen UHasselt, and in collaboration with colleagues in IPEM.
This experience has been one of hard work, collaboration, and mutual learning. Together, we navigated challenges and explored exciting research, and I am proud of her achievements!
For those interested in the topic, some key findings of her work can be found within the following links:

🚩 A significant milestone in my professional career 🚩
I am proud to share that on October 28th, I successfully obtained my PhD in “Interlimb coordination & auditory-motor synchronization when walking and running in children with Developmental Coordination Disorder” in the field of Rehabilitation Sciences and Physiotherapy at UHasselt! 🎓
My sincere gratitude goes to the Faculteit Revalidatiewetenschappen UHasselt, Research Foundation Flanders – FWO, my PhD team, prof. Peter Feys, prof. Eugene Rameckers, dr. Lousin Moumdjian, the doctoral committee members prof. Raf Meesen, prof. Marita Granitzer prof. Hilde Van Waelvelde and the external jury members prof. Peter Keller en dr. Jessica Lust, for their invaluable support and guidance. 🙏
After an inspiring and enriching period of academic research in DCD, I will soon be taking the next step in my career as a practice assistant in biomechanics at the Faculteit Revalidatiewetenschappen UHasselt. I am excited to further develop and share my knowledge and experience with students!
On to new challenges! 🚀

Last week we handed out certificates with colleagues from Faculteit Revalidatiewetenschappen UHasselt and Noorderhart and closed the 1 month intensive MS rehabilitation course 2024 of the three delegates from Middle East and North Africa Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis MENACTRIMS. Peter Feys Gianluca Florio Ilse Bosmans Ilse Lamers Maya Zeineddine
It was a beautiful cultural and knowledge exchange once again, and wishing the delegates all the best in their home countries.
I would like to thank our partners at MENACTRIMS for the continued collaboration and trust, and my colleagues at the univeristy and the rehabilitation centers for their contributions.

An eventful week spent in Aarhus 😁
Started the week with seeing colleagues from the @music in the brain lab and working closely with my good friend and colleague Mattia Rosso 😊
This was followed by a great SIG Mobility RIMS (Rehabilitation in Multiple Sclerosis) hosted by Lars Hvid and Ulrik Dalgas and the Danish MS hospitals with a great day of scientific talks followed by fantastic hands-on workshops presented by the physiotherapist team. Thank you all for the very warm welcome and great organisation 🤗
We attended with our research team Peter Feys Felipe Santinelli Schröder Jonas, where I presented results from our study investigating dynamic adaptations to auditory errors during walking in progressive MS, funded by Research Foundation Flanders – FWO Faculteit Revalidatiewetenschappen UHasselt.
The meeting was also extra special as it marked the end of my service to RIMS as co-chair of SIG mobility: a beautiful 6 year journey which I’ve shared with Carme Santoyo Medina ❤️
The SIG mobility is now in the capable hands of Ludovico Pedullà and Ellen Christin Arntzen 🥰 Congratulations and wishing you both a fun and agreeable time leading this fantastic group 😁
