Dear LIU DPT Students,

We are hosting Paul Hodges at LIU on Nov. 8th from 6-8PM.

If you don't know-Paul Hodges is perhaps the world's leading expert on motor control of the lumbar spine related to low back pain. He has authored more than 200 peer reviewed papers and has over 22 million dollars (Australian) in research funding (See his bio below the flyer)  He regularly speaks to the most prestigious scientific societies in the world as keynote speaker (e.g. Neuroscience). We are incredibly fortunate to have someone like him come to visit LIU.   And...he is a Physical Therapist.

YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS THIS.  Trust me.   And for you as an LIU DPT student....it's FREE!

I will be sending around a sign-up sheet in all of your classes soon. Please only sign it if you plan to come as the other seats we may be able to sell.   I decided to do a sign up rather than have you go to the website in the poster and sign up (ignore the poster directions below). So if you put your name on the sign-up sheet that will be coming around you are good.

Marshall

Brief CV of Paul Hodges
Paul Hodges is a Professor and NHMRC Senior Principal Research Fellow in the Division of Physiotherapy at the University of Queensland and Director of the NHMRC Centre of Clinical Research Excellence in Spinal Pain, Injury and Health. Paul has doctorates in both physiotherapy and neuroscience and his work blends neurophysiological and biomechanical methods to understand the control of movement and stability and how this changes when people have pain. In both 2006 and 2011 Paul was awarded the ISSLS Prize from the International Society for the Study of the Lumbar Spine. This is the premier international prize for back pain research. In 2010 he received the Achiever Award from the National Health and Medical Research Council as the highest ranked Research Fellow. His primary research interests include investigation the relationship between pain and motor control; the coordination of the multiple functions of the trunk muscles; the effect of exercise in interventions on musculoskeletal pain; and the biomechanical mechanisms for control of the spine. In addition to his research in Brisbane, Paul has ongoing collaborations with laboratories in Sydney, Melbourne, Sweden, USA, the Netherlands, Denmark and South Africa. He has published more that 200 peer reviewed papers and book chapters. He has received more that $AU22 million in research grants from the NHMRC, ARC and International research funds.
