In the rapidly evolving modern world, technological advancements are allowing for more effective research and treatment of diseases, disorders, and injuries sustained by humans. One of the foremost areas of current research in the biomechanics field is that of its role in treatment and rehabilitation of neurological disorders such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and multiple sclerosis (MS). According to the United Nations, as many as 1 billion people in the world live with neurological disorders. This post will focus mainly on how biomechanics can aid in the treatment and rehabilitation of ALS and MS.
