About this Seminar

Brain disorders affect people of all ages, and we depend on our brain’s ability to adapt and change with neuroplasticity after these diagnoses to make us as functional as possible. Here at the FBRI Neuromotor Research Clinic we are asking how we can use research to guide therapeutic process to improve the outcomes of children who have a diagnosis that impacts their brain development. We will talk about what makes the therapies we do different and why we believe that changing how we deliver therapy makes all the difference in the promotion of neuroplasticity.
