Szu-Ping Lee (Physical Therapy) received a National Institutes of Health Research Scientist Development Award sponsored by the National Center for Medical Rehabilitation Research within the Eunice Kennedy Shriver National Institute of Child Health and Human Development. The five-year, $655,000 award aims to advance the understanding of fundamental principles for motor skill acquisition among individuals with and at risk for limb loss. The goal of this research is to develop evidence-based amputee rehabilitation strategies. UNLV faculty members Robert Gregor (School of Allied Health Sciences) and Gabriele Wulf (Kinesiology and Nutrition Sciences) serve as mentors of this project.
