The Neurophysiology of Movement Laboratory (located on CU Boulder's Main Campus) is evaluating the influence of multiple sclerosis on the ability to control the force produced by lower-leg muscles. The study consists of one 2-hour visit to assess motor function with self-reported and clinical assessments and lower-leg muscle activity during moderate contractions.
The inclusion criteria for healthy individuals include:
- Men and women 18–65 years old
- No visual impairment (corrected vision is okay)
- No current or recent (<2 months) lower-limb injury
- No major health problems
The inclusion criteria for people with multiple sclerosis include:
- Clinical diagnosis of multiple sclerosis
- Able to walk with or without assistive device
- Men and women 18–65 years old
- No visual impairment (corrected vision is okay)
- No current or recent (<2 months) lower-limb injury
- No other major health problems than multiple sclerosis
