Motor-cognitive strategies for movement in Parkinson’s disease

Studies seeking participants Motor-cognitive strategies for movement in Parkinson’s disease

Posted: December 12, 2023

A new research study is investigating effects of dance and mental simulation of movement for people with Parkinson’s. The study requires an initial video call followed by 3 visits of 2-3 hours to a laboratory at the University of Toronto. During each session your movements will be recorded while you perform some seated movement tasks. We will also test the effects of stimulating areas of the brain with a non-invasive brain stimulation technique that is safe and does not have lasting effects. Visits will be scheduled approximately one week apart. Compensation will be provided towards travel expenses.

To participate, see flyer.
