Callen Maupin from the Rehabilitation Sciences Graduate Program at the University of Minnesota presented at the APTA Minnesota in Motion Annual Conference. His topic was “The Core of Movement: Trunk Control in Balance, Posture, and Rehabilitation.”
As a PhD candidate, Callen is interested in understanding how lesions in the cerebrum and basal ganglia lead to postural instability and axial rigidity with the goal of improving rehabilitation therapies and noninvasive brain stimulation technologies. Participants learned both theoretical insights and practical strategies to improve the efficiency of their rehabilitation practice and advance the field of postural control.
