Brain training for wobbly ankles? new study hopes to personalize rehab

This study from the University of Nebraska aims to understand why some people with chronic ankle instability have different problems—some have loose ligaments, others have poor brain control. Researchers will test 42 physically active adults, including healthy controls, people coping with ankle issues, and those with chronic instability. Participants will do balance and hop exercises while brain activity and movement are measured. The goal is to find better ways to tailor rehabilitation to each person's specific needs.
