Course objectives

module 1 (physics) : 

Refresh the main concepts of mechanics and focus on the main biomechanics parameters

 

module 2 (neurology):

The aim of the module is to provide an articulated knowledge of the techniques used for the automated analysis of movements in clinical settings, including the methods of acquisition, processing and interpretation of data for clinical purposes.
