Project role

The Canterbury Christ Church University team is leading Work Package 3: Feasibility of Transfer of Technology. They will be working with other UK partners to conduct normative laboratory tests with health children and children with C as well as pilot and feasibility studies of MOTION mechanised ankle-foot orthosis and exoskeleton technology with children with CP. Christ Church is also responsible for the conduct of a survey and interview with healthcare professionals and parents of children with CP to understand their knowledge, attitudes and experiences towards robotic Assistive Technology for rehabilation practice. Findings of this work will inform the design and delivery of training and 'Train the Trainer' programme for both groups to be able to engage with MOTION technology.Description
