BACKGROUND: Physical function is a key determinant of independence among older adults. Yet, there are barriers to assessing physical function in clinic. We developed a wearable geriatric functional assessment system (GFAS) that quickly and effortless...
The beam walk is widely used to study coordination and balance in rodents. While the task has ethological validity, the main endpoints of "foot slip counts" and "time to cross" are prone to human-rater variability and offer limited sensitivity and sp...
