Virtual Reality and Mobility Lab

Please note that Québec health institutions have been operating under the name Santé Québec since June 15, 2026.
Some pages published before that date may still contain the former CISSS and CIUSSS designations.

Description

Using virtual reality, motion capture systems, eye-tracking technology, psychometric visual perceptual measures and neurophysiological measures, we are investigating on the following research themes:

Characterization of visuomotor deficits during locomotion after stroke and in older adults;
Assessment and training of complex locomotor tasks in stroke survivors using high-end and low-cost virtual reality tools;
Impact of phone messaging while walking in young and older adults;
Impact of visuospatial neglect on visually guided locomotion and navigation;
Functional and neurophysiological changes induced by music supported therapy for stroke survivors.
