Some exciting new work from one of our excellent PhD students! #AcademicSky #AcademicSkyUK #science
And now the final presentation from our group at @northumbriauni.bsky.social is @paul-ansdell.bsky.social presenting his work titled Hormone therapy attenuates menopause related impairments in cortical neuroplasticity at @ecssofficial.bsky.social in Rimini, Italy 🇮🇹
Penultimate presentation from our group at @northumbriauni.bsky.social is @elisanedelec.bsky.social presenting her work on knee extensior neuromuscular function across the menstrual cycle at @ecssofficial.bsky.social in Rimini, Italy 🇮🇹
Next up from our group at @northumbriauni.bsky.social is @jandrushko.bsky.social presenting work on the contribution of the reticulospinal tract to concentric, Isometric, and eccentric muscle actions at @ecssofficial.bsky.social in Rimini, Italy 🇮🇹
At our last meeting @jandrushko.bsky.social & Jason DeFreitas introduced the physiology & physics of #EMG & how to get optimal signals. They stressed the importance of:
* setting up a low-noise lab
* consistent electrode placement
* digital filtering
* amplitude normalisation
A really useful talk!
Next up from our group at @northumbriauni.bsky.social is Dr Luca Angius givin a talk titled Non-invasive brain stimulation: Implications for exercise science research and application for physical and mental health at @ecssofficial.bsky.social in Rimini, Italy 🇮🇹
Our department head from @northumbriauni.bsky.social gave a fantastic presentation at @ecssofficial.bsky.social
Second up from our group from @northumbriauni.bsky.social is @padraig-spillane.bsky.social presenting his work titled Contraction intensity-specific fluctuations in motor unit behaviour across the menstrual cycle at @ecssofficial.bsky.social in Rimini, Italy 🇮🇹
First up from our group at @northumbriauni.bsky.social is Elisa Pastorio discussing Sex differences in durability during cycling exercise at @ecssofficial.bsky.social in Rimini, Italy 🇮🇹

Had a great time at the Women's Nutrition and Physiology symposium at @ljmuofficial.bsky.social today. Some fascinating talks and discussions througout the day. I also enjoyed presenting a poster of some data from my first PhD study on neurophysiology across the menstrual cycle
Yesterday I had the pleasure to speak with several people living with knee osteoarthritis over at the @healthworks.bsky.social charity in Newcastle upon Tyne. This was an incredible discussion that is going to directly impact my future research in this area.

This was a really challenging study and despite the end result being low n with mostly null findings, we still saw value in getting this out there! Congratulations to JC Carr for leading this effort!

Poster presentation as part of @tmsmultilab.bsky.social's TMS@40 event. A great consortium working to advance the field of TMS research in Birmingham 🇬🇧.
Enjoyed having Dr Emma Cowley and Dr Kelly McNulty present their ‘Invisible Sportswomen’ research at our department seminar today.
I forgot to take a photo, so go and read their latest paper instead!
