CDS Colloquium October 18th- Dr. Hang Jin Jo

NEUROMODULATION TO IMPROVE MOTOR FUNCTION AFTER SPINAL CORD INJURY

Hang Jin Jo, PT, PhD, is an Assistant Professor in the UB Department of Rehabilitation Science. Her research focuses on neurophysiological assessment of neurological impairments in clinical population and application of neuromodulation to improve their motor function.

Dr. Jo received her PT degree from Korea University and PhD in Kinesiology from the Pennsylvania State University. She completed her postdoctoral training at Miami Project to Cure Paralysis and Shirley Ryan AbilityLab studying neuromodulation in patients with spinal cord injury. She is now running a Motor Control and Rehabilitation Lab at UB and continuing her research in spinal cord injury.

 

This talk is open to UB faculty, SLPs and AuDs and will be offered via hybrid modality (in- person and via zoom).
