Research/Scholarship Interests
Pharmacology as it relates to rehabilitation specialists
(OT and PT), and use of modalities in rehabilitation to transcutaneously
deliver drugs (iontophoresis and phonophoresis).
Development of educational materials and instruction for how
pharmacology influences
physical therapy practice.
