Rehabilitation Science Research Laboratory

Optimizing rehabilitation of movement dysfunction.

The Rehabilitation Science Research Lab is a team of scientists committed to improving rehabilitation, health and wellness of people, education of rehabilitation scientists and service to the community.

Our scientific team has been funded by national agencies and foundations including the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation and the American Physical Therapy Association. Our research focuses on the theoretical underpinnings of movement dysfunction and development of diagnostic and rehabilitation techniques. An array of biomedical assessments and consultation is available for both the research and clinical community. The lab serves as a training ground for future scientists and clinicians, allowing our colleagues and students to innovate and advance the science of rehabilitation.
