The research project "Influence of the craniomandibular system on human postural control" is funded by the German Research Foundation. The aim of the project is to investigate for the first time the influences of controlled motor activity of the craniomandibular system (CMS) on human postural control in predictable and unpredictable situations. For this purpose, the movements of participants during different dynamic balance tasks are recorded on a kinematic and muscular level and analyzed with state-of-the-art models of motor control. This interdisciplinary research approach will continue previous research to comprehensively understand the influence of CMS on postural control processes.
