OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Irreversible, chronic fatigue is a prominent symptom in many neurological conditions. I investigate such fatigue in stroke survivors. In the first part of my talk, I will first put forward a model of fatigue based on the active inference framework of sensorimotor control and then present neurophysiological, behavioural and perceptual data that corroborates the proposed model of fatigue. In the second half of my talk, I will discuss a new implicit measure of perceived effort. I will also present preliminary data from ongoing studies in stroke survivors and discuss how there may be a disconnect between explicit and implicit effort perception in stroke survivors with high fatigue.
