SenseWalk’s team is pleased to announce the preregistration of one of the project’s studies entitled “The effect of sound and task conditions on walking on surfaceswith different textures”. This experiment aims at assessing walking behavior inconditions with different auditory cues and surface textures in healthy young adults of 18-35 years. By preregistering this experiment, SenseWalk’s…

SenseWalk’s PI, Argiro Vatakis, inspired by the projects’ work has launched aspecial issue entitled “Contributions of Multisensory Processing and Integration inSuccessful Ageing” in the journal of Brain Sciences (ISSN 2076-3425). This special issue belongs to the section “Sensory and Motor Neuroscience”. The Special Issue is highly relevant to SenseWalk given the latter’s objectives on the…

SenseWalk’s project team is running a new experiment in an attempt to evaluate walking behavior in conditions with different auditory cues and surface types. We are recruiting healthy young adults in the age range of 18-35 years, who perform gait tasks on rough and smooth surfaces with or without dual task conditions. Our dual task…

SenseWalk’s team was at the Panteion University of Social and Political Sciences to welcome the first-year students of all the Departments of the University. During this event, we had the chance to communicate the experimental activities of the Multisensory and Temporal Processing Laboratory (MultiTimeLab), and especially to inform the students about the SenseWalk project and…

The project team of the SenseWalk participated in the European Researchers’ Night that took place at the National Technical University of Athens (27/09/2024). During this activity, we had the chance to disseminate the project’s objectives concerning the benefits of multisensory perception on successful ageing via flyers. Moreover, we informed the general public about the research…

SenseWalk’s team attended the 1st TRF Summer School on “Modeling Altered TimeExperiences in Human and Hybrid Collectives”, as well as presented topics about time perception and its modulation due to a variety of factors (i.e., cognitive state) or stimuli (i.e., sensory ones). During the stay at Chios, the project team successfully disseminated SenseWalk’s goals about…

The project team is currently running experiments in elderly population in collaboration with the Friendship Clubs of the city of Athens. The objective of the experiments is to assess age-related gait alterations via wearable sensors as well as disturbances in multisensory perception and cognitive functions via computerized experiments. The project sample will be composed of healthy elders…

SenseWalk’s project team will participate in the 1st TRF Summer School on “Modeling Altered Time Experiences in Human and Hybrid Collectives” that will be held at island of Chios (23-27/7/2024). During this travel, we will communicate the SenseWalk’s objectives about the benefits of multisensory perception on healthy ageing. Additionally, we will conduct experimental with healthy elderly…

For conducting our experiments about the age-related alterations on human gait, multisensory perception, and cognitive functions, SenseWalk’s team is collaborating with the Friendship Clubs of the city of Athens. The aim of this collaboration is the recruitment of healthy elderly population in the age range of 60-80 plus years to evaluate the deviations in their…

SenseWalk’s team project took part in TFR3, the 3rd international conference dedicated to multidisciplinary research on timing and time perception, which was held at Champalimaud Center for the Unknown in Lisbon (4-6/10/2023). The aim of the dissemination activity was to provide information to international community about the project’s objectives via leaflets. Specifically, we discussed about the…
