    Walk Again Project is an international, non-profit consortium led by Miguel Nicolelis, created in 2009 in a partnership between Duke University and the IINN/ELS, where researchers come together to find neuro-rehabilitation treatments for spinal cord injuries, [1] [2] [3] which pioneered the development and use of the brain–machine interface, including its non-invasive version, [4] with an EEG.

    If you now walk 49 minutes per day or less, walking an extra 111 minutes per day — for a total of 160 — could help you live about 11 years longer, the study found.

  4. Kinesia paradoxa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinesia_paradoxa

    Specifically, kinesia paradoxa focuses on walking, referring to the sudden ability to demonstrate smooth, fluid movements in people that previously had problems with walking easily. This new discovery does not just happen to an individual randomly, but must be stimulated using various types of visual or auditory cues .

  5. Walkability - Wikipedia

    Walk Score is a company that creates a walkability index based on the distance to amenities such as grocery stores, schools, parks, libraries, restaurants, and coffee shops. [56] Walk Score's algorithm awards maximum points to amenities within 5 minutes' walk (.25 mi), and a decay function assigns points for amenities up to 30 minutes away. [57]

    Permeability is generally considered a positive attribute of an urban design, as it permits ease of movement and avoids severing neighbourhoods. Urban forms which lack permeability, e.g. those severed by arterial roads , or with many long culs-de-sac , are considered to discourage movement on foot and encourage longer journeys by car.

In the report, the researchers wrote that the state restrictions seemingly go against established medical practice. “Such limits on addiction medications appear to be inconsistent with clinical evidence and best practices,” they concluded.

  9. Evidence-based design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evidence-based_design

    Evidence-based design (EBD) was popularized by the seminal study by Ulrich (1984) that showed the impact of a window view on patient recovery. [3] Studies have since examined the relationships between design of the physical environment of hospitals with outcomes in health, the results of which show how the physical environment can lower the incidence of nosocomial infections, medical errors ...
