Research Topics: Neurorehabilitation; movement disorders; neuromodulation; motor control; Contribution of spinal reflex to movement control with emphasis on developing neuromodulatory interventions to improve function after neuropathology
Research Topics: Rehabilitation research related to gait biomechanics across the lifespan, neuromodulation in spinal cord injury on sensory motor outcomes, recovery of locomotion in spinal cord injury, caregiver/care recipient relationships in the families that include individuals with in spinal cord injury, and effects of community camps on empowering people with spinal cord injury and impacting their physical/psychosocial functioning and quality of life.
Research Topics: Understanding the functional implications of neuropsychiatric disorders including Tourette Syndrome with an emphasis on postinfectious neuropsychiatric disorders including Pediatric Acute-Onset Neuropsychiatric Syndrome (PANS), and Long-COVID. Optimizing comport and success for individuals with developmental disabilities in primary care settings, including improving the dental office experience using sensory, motor, and behavioral interventions. Creating optimal educational environments and interprofessional experiences for future healthcare providers across disciplines.
Research Interests: Neuromotor and physiological mechanisms in medically/socially vulnerable populations with brain injury; Motor control/learning and targeted neuromodulatory interventions to facilitate function and recovery; Psychometrics; Large Data Research; Clinical trials
