Local Research Events

Upcoming local research events

Online ERIG Event: Saturday 22 November @10am

Dr Alan Godfrey from Northumbria University will speak on “Better informing falls management in the home and community.”

Dr Godfrey is leading a collaborative proposal to the National Institute for Health and Care Research with university colleagues from Newcastle, Liverpool John Moores, Bradford and Heriot-Watt. They plan to use digital wearable devices to monitor walking patterns in People with Parkinson’s, with the ultimate aim of preventing freezing and falls.

Dr Godfrey’s collaborator from Heriot-Watt, Dr Encarna Micó Amigo, will also be at the ERIG event.
