PhD studentships
- 1. Jane Burridge Professor of Restorative Neuroscience PhD studentships I am interested in supervising PhD and DClin students from a wide range of disciplines. I am particularly interested in technologies for self-management following stroke and research into mechanisms of recovery. Current and recent studentships include: Prediction of upper limb recovery post-stroke using wrist motor impairments: A longitudinal study of stroke recovery with 50 participants from 2 weeks to six months post stroke. Student: Waroonnapa Srisoparb Supervisors: Jane Burridge and Ruth Turk Cortical activity changes among stroke patients following robotic upper limb rehabilitation as measured by EEG during reaching movements Student: Sebastien Pollet Supervisors: Jane Burridge and David Simpson Validity and Reliability of a wearable wireless sensor platform for monitoring upper limb activity in stroke patients Students Claire Meagher Supervisors: Jane Burridge and ann-Marie Hughes (in collaboration with Paolo Bonato MIT) Development of LifeCIT for Patients following Traumatic Brain Injury: An interactive web-based programme to support independent rehabilitation Student: Hannah Marshall Supervisors: Jane Burridge and Ann-Marie Hughes Exploring the recommendation for 45 minutes of therapy following stroke: A systematic review and meta-analysis of the evidence for intensity in stroke rehabilitation, a qualitative study using focus groups and Delphi methodology and a survey of therapists in practice Student: Beth Clark Supervisors: Jane Burridge and Jill Whitall Hospital and home-based feasibility study of iCycle for functional recovery after incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI). Student: Ahmad Alahmary Supervisors Jane Burridge and Julian Pearce (in collaboration with Nick Donaldson at UCL) Relationship between Trunk Control and Recovery of Upper Extremity
- 2. Function in Stroke Patients: A longitudinal study of 45 participants over six months. Student: Seng Kwee Wee Supervisors: Jane Burridge, Ann-Marie Hughes and Martin Warner Explicit and Implicit Motor Learning During Early Gait Rehabilitation Post Stroke Student: Louise Johnson Supervisors: Jane Burridge and Sara Demain The effect of combining transcranial direct current stimulation with robot therapy for the impaired upper limb in stroke Student Lisa Tedesco-Triccas Supervisors: Jane Burridge and Ann-Marie Hughes
