Guillain-Barré syndrome (GBS) is a rare neurologic condition that can cause muscle weakness and — in severe cases — mobility, breathing and swallowing issues. With our deep expertise in treating children and adults with GBS through intensive rehabilitation, we help our patients regain function and independence.

Identification of sensory-motor control in reaching

Sensory inputs such as vision, proprioception, and touch play a crucial role in post-stroke recovery. Our research delves into how these sensory contributions can be assessed to develop effective, personalized therapy strategies. Enhancing and tailoring sensory inputs to an individual’s needs allows us to explore how learning outcomes can be improved and errors reduced. Through synthetic simulations that combine muscular, visual, and proprioceptive inputs, we aim to understand better the complex processes involved in motor learning.
