Presentations and Conferences
El recently attended the APTA Combined Sections Meeting in Denver, CO in Feb. 2020 to attend educational sessions and present research from her DPT training on sleep in inpatient rehabilitation settings!
Ongoing Projects
El is currently implementing neuroimaging modalities to investigate the effects of neurorehabilitation technologies and interventions (e.g. soft robotic exosuit, rhythmic auditory stimulation) on post-stroke walking function.
