Researcher biography
I am interested in ways to promote recovery in the brain following neurological injury, with specific expertise in the field of exercise and its impact on neurotrophic factors, including brain derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF). My experience includes the physiological bases of exercise, exercise prescrition and clinical physiotherapy practice in the field of neurological recovery including people post stroke.
