About
Dr. Jennifer Ryan is a leading researcher in paediatric neurorehabilitation, with a core focus on motor learning strategies and their application in children with acquired brain injury (ABI). Her major contribution lies in developing and validating tools to systematically document how physiotherapists integrate motor learning principles into clinical practice—a critical step toward understanding what makes motor skills–based treatments effective. Her most-cited work, the 2021 study on the Revised Motor Learning Strategies Rating Instrument, established the inter- and intrarater reliability of this tool, enabling clinicians and researchers to objectively assess therapy content. With 9 citations, this foundational paper has shaped how the field evaluates intervention fidelity in paediatric ABI rehabilitation. Dr. Ryan’s work bridges the gap between theoretical motor learning frameworks and real-world physiotherapy sessions, providing a rigorous methodology for future outcome studies. Her research is essential reading for clinicians and scientists seeking to optimize recovery of motor function in children with neurological injuries.
