Achieved aim(s) of the project

The proposed online workshop was scientifically useful for rehabilitation specialists (both students and clinicians) as it promoted movement variability as essential for exploring the regularities in the dynamics of the individual within their environment. This should augment the interest in individualized rehabilitation approaches. Therapists were encouraged to translate research in differential learning once trying themselves as further translate it into clinical programs. Participants tried to understand their walking patterns under in permanently changing internal and environmental conditions.
