Madeleine E. Hackney studies movement, balance, and cognition in older adults and people with neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease, dementia, and stroke, with a particular focus on dance- and exercise-based interventions. Her work spans fall prevention, gait analysis, robot-assisted rehabilitation exercise, and the cognitive and neuroscience underpinnings of dance-based therapies. Much of the research involves clinical trials and pilot studies testing nonpharmacological interventions to improve mobility and quality of life.
