PhD studentships
I am interested in supervising PhD and DClin students from a wide range of
disciplines. I am particularly interested in technologies for self-management
following stroke and research into mechanisms of recovery. Current and recent
studentships include:
Prediction of upper limb recovery post-stroke using wrist motor impairments: A
longitudinal study of stroke recovery with 50 participants from 2 weeks to six
months post stroke.
Student: Waroonnapa Srisoparb
Supervisors: Jane Burridge and Ruth Turk
Cortical activity changes among stroke patients following robotic upper limb
rehabilitation as measured by EEG during reaching movements
Student: Sebastien Pollet
Supervisors: Jane Burridge and David Simpson
Validity and Reliability of a wearable wireless sensor platform for monitoring
upper limb activity in stroke patients
Students Claire Meagher
Supervisors: Jane Burridge and ann-Marie Hughes (in collaboration with Paolo
Bonato MIT)
Development of LifeCIT for Patients following Traumatic Brain Injury: An
interactive web-based programme to support independent rehabilitation
Student: Hannah Marshall
Supervisors: Jane Burridge and Ann-Marie Hughes
Exploring the recommendation for 45 minutes of therapy following stroke: A
systematic review and meta-analysis of the evidence for intensity in stroke
rehabilitation, a qualitative study using focus groups and Delphi methodology
and a survey of therapists in practice
Student: Beth Clark
Supervisors: Jane Burridge and Jill Whitall
Hospital and home-based feasibility study of iCycle for functional recovery after
incomplete spinal cord injury (SCI).
Student: Ahmad Alahmary
Supervisors Jane Burridge and Julian Pearce (in collaboration with Nick
Donaldson at UCL)
Relationship between Trunk Control and Recovery of Upper Extremity

2. Function in Stroke Patients: A longitudinal study of 45 participants over six
months.
Student: Seng Kwee Wee
Supervisors: Jane Burridge, Ann-Marie Hughes and Martin Warner
Explicit and Implicit Motor Learning During Early Gait Rehabilitation Post Stroke
Student: Louise Johnson
Supervisors: Jane Burridge and Sara Demain
The effect of combining transcranial direct current stimulation with robot
therapy for the impaired upper limb in stroke
Student Lisa Tedesco-Triccas
Supervisors: Jane Burridge and Ann-Marie Hughes
