    Abstract

    Corrin’s doctorate is entitled ‘Investigating the Use of Wearable Sensors to Measure Upper Limb Range of Motion in Young Children with Cerebral Palsy’ and was affiliated with Kids Rehab WA at Perth Children’s Hospital and the Centre for Research Excellence in Cerebral Palsy. This work identified evidence for early limitations in wrist and elbow range of motion in young children with cerebral palsy, adding to the support for early identification and intervention in this field.
