Congratulations to Julian on successfully defending his doctoral thesis
We are delighted to congratulate Julian from subproject C03 on successfully defending his dissertation last week — with distinction! 🏆
In his thesis, Investigating Postural Control in Parkinson’s Disease Using Neuromusculoskeletal Simulations, Julian explored one of the key questions in movement science: how humans maintain balance and how these mechanisms are affected by Parkinson’s disease. By combining neuromusculoskeletal simulations with research on human movement, his work provides valuable insights into the mechanisms underlying postural control and may contribute to improved assessment and intervention strategies in the future.
Congratulations, Julian, on this outstanding achievement! The entire EmpkinS team wishes you all the best and every success for the next chapter of your career. 🥳🎓🍾
