Lauren Muitz
Lauren recently completed a research project evaluating the feasibility, reliability, and concurrent validity of a field test of exertion in adolescents. Following the completion of this project Lauren's PhD research will focus on the exercise physiological component associated with concussion rehabilitation. With a background in exercise physiology Lauren plans to work towards bridging the gap been sport-related concussion rehabilitation and exercise physiology. She will also be facilitating the performance measures performed at baseline and post injury in the SHRed project. Lauren is the President of the ICRP trainee committee.
