Our Mission

We are committed to transforming rehabilitation for individuals with neurodevelopmental disabilities by deepening understanding of how mobility, exploration, and interaction drive development across the lifespan. We are interested in studying how infants and children with developmental disabilities explore their physical and social environment compared to typically developing peers, as well as the cascading effects of motor difficulties on a child’s social communication and cognitive development.

We are also interested in assessing health-related outcomes in adolescents and young adults with developmental disabilities, including their physical activity and physical fitness levels. Through evidence‑based inquiry and innovative technologies, we aim to promote equitable access to meaningful movement experiences that support growth, learning, participation, and lifelong well‑being.
