The aim of this Marie Curie Global Postdoctoral fellowship is to develop valid digital markers for monitoring of and providing feedback on physical activity, paving the way for implementation and intervention.

 

Fellowship timeline

 

* RCT = randomized controlled clinical trial

 

Objectives

  • Measure the effect of a pragmatic exercise intervention trial on self-reported physical activity levels and cardio-respiratory fitness in wheelchair users with spinal cord injury.
  • Develop valid algorithms for tracking physical activity markers in wheelchair users (continuation of the DigiW project)
  • Co-create a framework that outlines how physical activity can be conjointly monitored and provided feedback on in wheelchair users
