Overview

Talia Herman is a researcher affiliated with the Tel Aviv Sourasky Medical Center in Israel, with a primary focus on neurology and rehabilitation within the broader fields of medicine and health professions. Their work prominently addresses neurological disorders, particularly Parkinson's disease and movement disorders, with significant contributions to understanding gait, balance, and motor control mechanisms.

Herman's research portfolio includes investigations into Parkinson's Disease mechanisms and treatments, balance and gait analysis, cerebral palsy and other movement disorders, muscle activation using electromyography, treatment of neurological disorders, restless legs syndrome, and the application of transcranial magnetic stimulation techniques.

Frequent publication venues where Herman's work is featured include:

  • Movement Disorders
  • Journal of Neurology
  • Sensors
  • npj Parkinson's Disease
  • Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications

Among their recent scholarly papers are:

  • "Tossing and Turning in Bed: Nocturnal Movements in Parkinson's Disease" (2020), published in Movement Disorders
  • "Using Wearable Sensors and Machine Learning to Automatically Detect Freezing of Gait during a FOG-Provoking Test" (2020), published in Sensors
  • "Multitarget Transcranial Electrical Stimulation for Freezing of Gait: A Randomized Controlled Trial" (2021), published in Movement Disorders
  • "Dopaminergic therapy and prefrontal activation during walking in individuals with Parkinson's disease: does the levodopa overdose hypothesis extend to gait?" (2020), published in Journal of Neurology
  • "Protocol for the DeFOG trial: A randomized controlled trial on the effects of smartphone-based, on-demand cueing for freezing of gait in Parkinson's disease" (2021), published in Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications

Herman collaborates frequently with multiple researchers in the field, including:

  • Jeffrey M. Hausdorff
