Excited to present soon at #ISPRM2026 about the Future of Artificial Intelligence in Rehabilitation Medicine and to talk about some of the work we are doing with it at @abilitylab.bsky.social

If you are at American Spinal Injury Association meeting this year come check our course 4 at 2:40 to hear from the winners of our 2026 data challenge

And the precision neurorehabilitation satellite is a wrap! Had a great time and nice to hear this was a record size satellite for @ncmsociety.bsky.social! Hope everyone had a good time.

Now on to our @ncmsociety.bsky.social satellite tomorrow: "Precision neurorehabilitation for movement disorders: Integrating technology, neuroscience, and clinical practice" (ncm-society.org/satellite-me...). Such mentally synergistic meetings back-to-back.

Wrapped up @janeliaconf.bsky.social's Simulated Bodies meeting (www.janelia.org/you-janelia/...) — incredible to see how fast neuromuscular modeling, simulation, and neuroscience are converging.

I want to like Gemini 3 but gemini-cli is the most enraging, terrible experience. It is so impulsive and while trying to develop a plan it just starts making random half baked code edits. No amount of agent file or memories seems to prevent this. It is unaligned and usless for anything complex.

At #SfN and want to hear about how BiomechGPT can provide a language interface to your biomechanics data? Checkout poster happening now at YY4 with Ruize Yang and @antihebbiann.bsky.social

If you are at @acrmrehab.bsky.social I will be presenting this morning (8am) SPECIAL SYMPOSIUM: Ai-powered Movement Analysis and a Causal Framework for Precision Rehabilitation SS1 #ACRM2025 cdmcd.co/5npwMR

Enjoyed presenting on "The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly: AI for SCI Clinicians" with @ryansolinskymd.bsky.social and @josezariffa.bsky.social. Great enthusiasm from the crowd on the topic and the lively discussion and nice followup from precourse bsky.app/profile/ryan...

Over the last few years we have been developing methods for markerless motion capture of biomechanics and getting them into the clinics, such as at @abilitylab.bsky.social. We are now developing foundation models from these large datasets and testing what this enables. Two recent preprints:

Finally recovered from RehabWeek in Chicago, which was fantastic. It was a very successful week for the Intelligent Sensing and Rehabilitation lab at @abilitylab.bsky.social. (p.s. sorry below for anyone on BlueSky who I couldn't find/failed to tag)

Looking forward to presenting on what we can do with large-scale biomechanics data in rehabilitation in the SoMNiR #RehabWeek 2025 session this afternoon! @abilitylab.bsky.social

@jdpeiffer.bsky.social and Tim Unger gave a great talk in the ICORR best student paper session on their work using markerless motion capture to track arm kinematics of people with stroke. arxiv.org/abs/2411.14992

Really enoyed the session and engagement!

ASNR@asnrehab.bsky.social · last yr.

We're enjoying an engaging Q&A session with our #ASNR2025 speakers Dr. @lenating.bsky.social, Dr. Lucas McKay, Dr. Trisha Kesar, @peabody124.bsky.social, and Dr. Hyeok Kwon. We appreciate these thoughtful questions from the audience and responses from the panel! #neurorehabilitation #neuroscience

Continuing our #ASNR2025 symposium on #ArtificialIntelligence and computational modeling in #neurorehabilitation, @peabody124.bsky.social discussed how his lab is quantifying gait-based biomarkers during functional mobility tasks in diverse clinical settings. #AI #neuroscience #rehabilitation

Very much looking forward to our speakers: @maryamshanechi.bsky.social, @hugospiers.bsky.social, Marom Bikson, @jenpitt.bsky.social, Mary Czerwinski, @peabody124.bsky.social, @dpferris.bsky.social, @sladouce.bsky.social, Matthew Rizzo, @c-rothkopf.bsky.social, @doriswang.bsky.social, Ying Choon Wu

@ben-petrie.bsky.social gave a great #physiatry2025 presentation on EMG biofeedback for people with spinal cord injury and won first prize! Thanks to the Craig H. Neilsen Foundation for support for this project, and to all of our participants. Excited to share this soon in an upcoming manuscript!

Pretty pleased about this work arxiv.org/abs/2502.06486 with @sinzlab.bsky.social showing how we can infer kinematic confidence intervals from multiview markerless motion capture. At least for our purposes, methods like this are equally important to traditional validation studies. #BiomechSky

Biomechanical Reconstruction with Confidence Intervals from Multiview Markerless Motion Capture

Super stoked about the progress @jdpeiffer.bsky.social is making on monocular biomechanical analysis. Also really fun to connect back to my old drone hobby (and they are so much easier now than a decade ago buildandcrash.blogspot.com/2014/10/refl...)

The team did great work validating end-to-end optimization of markerless motion capture in the upper extremity for people with stroke. Compared to optical motion capture, tracking the elbow within a few degrees :). Other metrics are also great. Really enjoying the collaboration with LLUI!

Been having some great conversations and presentations about this preprint since it came out. I'm really pleased by how postively many people are responding to it. I'd love to hear from the community of any people they know doing relevant causal inference work (rehab or not).

While rehabilitation is moving towards an era of big data, we still lack a framework to analyze this data to improve outcomes. We took a stab at this, which we call a "Causal Framework for Precision Rehabilitation." arxiv.org/abs/2411.03919

I enjoyed presenting at the ICOT meeting in Gran Cararia www.jornadasicotdca.com. Very fun learning and hearing more about international rehabilitation and seeing the vibrant community they have here!
