Her work is focused on human balance analysis, sensory stimulation during stance, postural leg muscle vibration and age-related changes in posture as well as impact of the Parkinson’s disease on balance control. Since 2019, she has been also interested in balance control under postural threat (e.g. height) in virtual reality environment. She is the co-investigator of international project EU FP6, principal investigator and co-investigator of national APVV and VEGA projects, a member of the organization committee of the 5th, 8th and 9th International Posture Symposium about posture, gait and human balance control (www.posture.sk).
