Biography

Daniel has worked in the Physiotherapy program at WSU since 2017. He has taught broadly into the WSU Physiotherapy program, with a focus on musculoskeletal physiotherapy and career development. Daniel's research interests include how the control of movement changes due to aging or disease, with a particular focus on gait, as well as clinical projects more broadly related to physiotherapy practice. Daniel has a keen interest in research supervision and has supervised a number of Honours students to completion in the Physiotherapy program.
