Dr. Ting shares her work uncovering the connections between the brain and body that lead to movement — from walking and balance to dance and sports. She explains how understanding movement helps us tackle challenges like stroke recovery, Parkinson’s disease, and fall prevention in aging populations.The conversation also dives into the future of rehabilitation, wearable robotics, and how training programs like dance can reshape the way we move and heal. Dr. Ting’s insights highlight the power of engineering and neuroscience working together to improve quality of life.Listen now to explore how cutting-edge research in movement science will shape rehabilitation and mobility for the future.Learn More About Lena Ting:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCb96XsZyuPmY8mZUM4TDV7Ahttps://scholarblogs.emory.edu/neuromechanicslab/Support Tomorrow’s Breakthroughs – Donate Today: If you want to support the research you heard about on today’s episode, consider a donation to the Wallace H.
