Gait & Posture publishes new and innovative basic and clinical research on all aspects of human movement, locomotion and balance. The topics covered include: - Techniques for the measurement of gait and posture, and the standardization of results presentation - Studies of normal and pathological gait -Treatment of gait and postural abnormalities - Biomechanical and theoretical approaches to gait and posture - Mathematical models of joint and muscle mechanics - Neurological and musculoskeletal function in gait and posture - The evolution of upright posture and bipedal locomotion - Adaptations of carrying loads, walking on uneven surfaces, climbing stairs etc, running and performing other movements. - Spinal biomechanics only if they are directly related to gait and/or dynamic posture and are of general interest to our readers - The effect of aging and development on gait and posture - Psychological and cultural aspects of gait - Patient education - Efficacy and mechanisms of gait analysis in decision making. The journal is primarily focused on dynamic aspects of human movement and postural control.
