About

William McIlroy is a Professor at the University of Waterloo, Canada. His research focuses on neurodegenerative diseases, particularly the interplay between motor function, gait, and cognitive processes, as evidenced by his recent studies within the Ontario Neurodegenerative Disease Research Initiative. He also explores the effects of emotional states on motor control and the integration of technology in health-related behavior assessments for older adults.
