Description

Development of clinical neurological assessments aimed at separating normal from abnormal capabilities requires a comprehensive understanding of how basic neurological functions change with increasing age across adulthood. This CEU course quantifies whether upper limb position sense deteriorates with increasing age, and generates a set of normative data that can be used for future comparisons with clinical populations.
