Researchers at the University of Alberta are conducting a study to better understand movement patterns and muscle activity in people with Parkinson\u2019s disease, particularly those experiencing tremor or freezing of gait. The study involves movement assessments using wearable sensors and interviews about mobility challenges and wearable technology. Findings from this research will support the development of a smart wearable garment designed to detect movement changes and provide electrical stimulation to help reduce tremor, stiffness, and walking difficulties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
