Group Leader

Esther Duarte Oller

The main scientific objectives of the group are to advance the knowledge of brain plasticity and motor recovery in stroke patients and to assess the effects of physical training on cardiovascular disease, chronic respiratory disease, cancer and ageing. The group also works on the development of telerehabilitation systems applied to osteoarticular, neurological, pulmonary and cardiorespiratory diseases, encouraging interaction between basic and clinical sciences, and health services, with potential translational application, providing innovative and potentially effective treatment alternatives. In the past year, the group has focused on the study of sarcopenia and malnutrition-related syndromes.
