Biography

I am Professor in Physiotherapy in the School of Allied Health at the University of Limerick. My current programme of research includes the design and evaluation interventions to optimise physical activity, health and wellbeing, and prevent falls in older people and people with neurological conditions and the role of technology in rehabilitation. I have a keen interest in the role of arts for health and in particular the benefits of music and dance for health and wellbeing.

I also have an interest in lower limb injury and sports performance, including movement analysis, and assessment of physical performance.

I have been Course Director of the BSc in Physiotherapy and graduate entry MSc in Physiotherapy programmes in the University of Limerick. I have an interest in evaluating and optimising teaching, learning and assessment practices in higher education, including interprofessional education.


I previously worked clinically as a Junior Physiotherapist at Brighton and Sussex University Hospitals, NHS Trust in the UK where I worked in
ICU, acute medical wards and outpatient rehabilitation clinics, which included rehabilitation of older adults and people with neurological conditions. In addition, I gained outpatient experience in the management of people with acute and chronic orthopaedic, musculoskeletal and rheumatological conditions. Following this I worked as a Senior Orthopaedic and Outpatient Physiotherapist at the Whittington Hospital, NHS Trust London, UK and subsequently in as a Senior Orthopaedic and Sports Physiotherapist at the Wellington Hospital, St. John's Wood in London.

Research Interests

On-going/ Previous Projects:
