Rehabilitation expert Dr Gavin Williams will visit Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Orange on Tuesday 30 April to work with third-year Bachelor of Physiotherapy students at the School of Community Health on methods to help brain injury patients re-learn how to run. Dr Williams developed Australia’s first running group for neurological patients and has considerable research experience in the treatment and measurement of mobility disorders following neurological injury. CSU physiotherapy lecturer Ms Kerstin McPherson said Dr Williams would work with students in the campus rehabilitation gym, deliver a lecture and then run drills with students on the sports oval. “This is an excellent high-level educational opportunity for our students, and for local practitioners,” she said. “Rebecca Moore from Orange Base Hospital, who regularly supervises Charles Sturt University students during their practical work placements, will also attend, and Dr Williams’ visit is an example of the strong and ongoing relationships the physiotherapy program in Orange has developed with local practitioners.”
