In this week's episode, hosts Riya Sidhu and Ryan Baxter interview Sarah Park, a student in the combined MScOT/PhD program in Health and Rehabilitation Sciences. Parkinson's disease can have a deleterious effect on walking, or gait. Left untreated, worsening gait (such as uneven pacing, or irregular steps) can lead to negative outcomes, such as falls. Sarah discusses her research in non-pharmacological interventions to help improve walking. Sarah, Riya, and Ryan discuss interdisciplinary research opportunities and ways in which graduate students can become involved in the local community. Sarah is co-supervised by: - Dr. Jessica Grahn, the Principal Investigator of the Music and Neuroscience Lab based out of the Centre for Brain and Mind - and Dr. Jeffrey Holmes, the Principal Investigator of the Health and Human Performance Lab based out of the School of Occupational Therapy For further information on Sarah's research, one may check out her Twitter / X account and her Linkedin. For those in the London community, the Parkinson Society Southwestern Ontario focuses on education, advocacy, community building, and research.
