So who on here is going to @ISPGR this year? Anyone up for a night of bouldering? There's a great gym in Maastricht. .

Preprint alert! With amazing Msc student Raven Huiberts (looking for a job!) and Jen Davies , we studied involvement of motor cortex in gait with TMS. Feedback welcome! This was a really fun collab, made possible thanks to @royalsociety grant!.

All examples are now also in Python. For reading C3D in Python, I used ezc3d by @PPuchaud, which was really simple to implement (and I might implement the Matlab version as well some day, instead of the code I have there now ).

Examples now include calculating (+checking) gait events from .- Centre of pressure data.- Vertical ground reaction force.- Kinematics. - VU 3D model data structure. - Foot markers. - Vertical position and vel. -Ap position.

Want to calculate gait events, and check them? We've had a tool for this for years, which I now also translated to Python, and made available for all of yous to use. @mohammad_mahaki even made some videos on how to use the tool. Feedback welcome!.

Every time you publish about how good your new algorithm is, without making said algorithm openly available in some sort way or form, a puppy dies. STOP KILLING PUPPIES!.
