Elastic properties and yield stress of fetal membranesGeorge F Wittenberg
Dept of Veterans Affairs VAMCHS, University of Maryland, Baltimore, MD, USA
Conf Proc IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc 2011:2123-6. 2011..modeled the mechanical properties using a power-law relationship. Because the clinical samples were from normal deliveries, clinical correlation remains as an unfinished aim of this project...
Neural plasticity and treatment across the lifespan for motor deficits in cerebral palsyGeorge F Wittenberg
Baltimore VA Medical Center Geriatric Research, Education and Clinical Center, Baltimore, MD, USA
Dev Med Child Neurol 51:130-3. 2009..This article describes mechanisms of plasticity and a rehabilitation strategy to preserve the substrates for motor control in CP and then to apply later therapies for more refinement of motor control...
Motor mapping in cerebral palsyGeorge F Wittenberg
Baltimore VA Medical Center Geriatric Research, Education and Clinical Center, Baltimore, MD, USA
Dev Med Child Neurol 51:134-9. 2009..These abnormal motor maps also are a therapeutic target, as stimulation methods are being developed as adjuncts to physical means of rehabilitation...
The neural basis of constraint-induced movement therapyGeorge F Wittenberg
Geriatric Research, Education, and Clinical Center, VA Maryland Healthcare System, Baltimore, MD 21201, USA
Curr Opin Neurol 22:582-8. 2009....
Experience, cortical remapping, and recovery in brain diseaseGeorge F Wittenberg
Geriatric Research, Education, and Clinical Center, VA Maryland Health Care System, Baltimore, MD 21201 1524, USA
Neurobiol Dis 37:252-8. 2010..Future therapies may be able to use that potential to maximize recovery...
Research Grants
- Motor Map Plasticity in Constraint Therapy for StrokeGeorge Wittenberg; Fiscal Year: 2005..This could lead to the development of new rehabilitative strategies based on the interaction between therapeutic interventions and the physiology and anatomy of recovery. ..
- Motor-Functional Neuroanatomy in Cerebral PalsyGeorge Wittenberg; Fiscal Year: 2006..Because the TMS measurements are non-invasive, painless, and relatively rapid, this method has promise for motor general application in understanding, classifying, and treating patients with cerebral palsy. ..
