Front Pediatr . 2024 Dec; 12:1447512. PMID: 39703950
Cerebral Palsy (CP) is a leading cause of childhood motor disability, making independent walking a crucial therapeutic goal. Robotic assistive devices offer potential to enhance mobility, promoting community engagement and...

Villani M, Avaltroni P, Scordo G, Rubeca D, Kreynin P, Bereziy E, et al.
Front Neurosci . 2024 Nov; 18:1461323. PMID: 39513047
While exoskeleton technology is becoming more and more common for gait rehabilitation in children with neurological disorders, evaluation of gait performance still faces challenges and concerns. The reasoning behind evaluating...

Avaltroni P, Cappellini G, Sylos-Labini F, Ivanenko Y, Lacquaniti F
Front Physiol . 2024 Aug; 15:1389436. PMID: 39108539
The spatial segmental location of motoneurons in the human spinal cord is influenced by both evolutionary and functional principles tending to optimize motor control, reflex integration, and adaptation to the...

Cappellini G, Sylos-Labini F, Avaltroni P, Dewolf A, Assenza C, Morelli D, et al.
Sci Rep . 2023 May; 13(1):7286. PMID: 37142631
Switching locomotion direction is a common task in daily life, and it has been studied extensively in healthy people. Little is known, however, about the locomotor adjustments involved in changing...

Bach M, Zandvoort C, Cappellini G, Ivanenko Y, Lacquaniti F, Daffertshofer A, et al.
Front Hum Neurosci . 2023 Mar; 17:1101432. PMID: 36875237
Introduction: Children start to run after they master walking. How running develops, however, is largely unknown. Methods: We assessed the maturity of running pattern in two very young, typically developing...

Sylos-Labini F, La Scaleia V, Cappellini G, Dewolf A, Fabiano A, Solopova I, et al.
Commun Biol . 2022 Nov; 5(1):1256. PMID: 36385628
When does modular control of locomotion emerge during human development? One view is that modularity is not innate, being learnt over several months of experience. Alternatively, the basic motor modules...

Zhvansky D, Sylos-Labini F, Dewolf A, Cappellini G, dAvella A, Lacquaniti F, et al.
Sensors (Basel) . 2022 Aug; 22(15). PMID: 35957264
Recent advances in the performance and evaluation of walking in exoskeletons use various assessments based on kinematic/kinetic measurements. While such variables provide general characteristics of gait performance, only limited conclusions...

Dewolf A, Sylos-Labini F, Cappellini G, Zhvansky D, Willems P, Ivanenko Y, et al.
Front Hum Neurosci . 2021 Nov; 15:749366. PMID: 34744664
Locomotor movements are accommodated to various surface conditions by means of specific locomotor adjustments. This study examined underlying age-related differences in neuromuscular control during level walking and on a positive...

Dewolf A, Sylos-Labini F, Cappellini G, Ivanenko Y, Lacquaniti F
PLoS One . 2021 Feb; 16(2):e0246372. PMID: 33596223
Previous studies found significant modification in spatiotemporal parameters of backward walking in healthy older adults, but the age-related changes in the neuromuscular control have been considered to a lesser extent....

Cappellini G, Sylos-Labini F, Assenza C, Libernini L, Morelli D, Lacquaniti F, et al.
Front Neurol . 2020 Dec; 11:583296. PMID: 33362693
Surface electromyography (sEMG) can be used to assess the integrity of the neuromuscular system and its impairment in neurological disorders. Here we will consider several issues related to the current...
