SUMMARY:Mind in Motion: Bridging Cognition and Motor Recovery
DESCRIPTION:This webinar emphasizes evidence-based strategies that therapists can immediately integrate into clinical practice. It explores the powerful relationship between cognition and motor recovery in neurorehabilitation. Participants will review current evidence on how attention\, executive function\, and motor planning shape functional outcomes after brain injury\, and use case examples to connect research to practical\, occupation-based interventions that promote neuroplasticity and participation. \nLearning Objectives \n\n	Describe current research linking cognitive processes (attention\, executive function\, motor planning) to motor recovery after brain injury.\n	Analyze case scenarios to identify how cognitive–motor interactions influence treatment planning and goal setting.\n	Apply evidence-based\, occupation-centered strategies that integrate cognitive and motor training to improve functional outcomes in rehabilitation.\n\nPresenter \nMichelle Weinberg\, OTR/L\, MSOT\, CBIS\, CSRS\, is an Occupational Therapist III at Memorial Regional Hospital South in Hollywood\, Florida\, with over 20 years of experience in neurorehabilitation. She is a Certified Brain Injury Specialist\, Stroke Rehabilitation Specialist\, and Graston Technique Specialist\, and is currently pursuing her Doctor of Occupational Therapy at Nova Southeastern University. Her doctoral research focuses on advocating for helmet use among e-scooter riders to prevent traumatic brain injuries. Michelle is passionate about evidence-based practice\, interprofessional education\, and innovative interventions that bridge cognition and motor recovery to maximize independence and quality of life for individuals with brain injury. \nIncludes 1 ACBIS CEU.

SUMMARY:Advances in Understanding the Outcomes of Pediatric TBI: Implications for Practice and Policy
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will review progress in understanding the outcomes of pediatric traumatic brain injury (TBI) since the Journal of Head Trauma Rehabilitation special issue on “head injury” in children appeared in 1986. The webinar will highlight the critical role that prospective\, longitudinal cohort studies have played in advancing knowledge about both mild and moderate-severe pediatric TBI and describe conceptual and methodological innovations that the past 40 years of research has spurred\, along with implications for practice and policy. The webinar will also summarize remaining challenges\, including the need for comparative effectiveness and randomized controlled trials to determine what interventions are effective\, as well as for implementation science to translate research into clinical practice\, with the goal being to provide better care and improve outcomes for children with TBI and their families. \nLearning Objectives: \n\n	Describe major advances in knowledge about outcomes of pediatric TBI.\n	Discuss implications of past research regarding pediatric TBI outcomes for practice and policy.\n	Identify future challenges in research on pediatric TBI outcomes.\n\nPresenters: \nStacy Suskauer\, MD\, is a pediatric physiatrist and Vice President for Rehabilitation at Kennedy Krieger Institute in Baltimore\, Maryland. She is also Director of the Division of Pediatric Rehabilitation and a Professor in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation and Pediatrics at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine.  In her leadership roles\, Dr. Suskauer leads the pediatric rehabilitation providers across a four-hospital pediatric rehabilitation network.  She also co-directs the Brain Injury Clinical Research Center at Kennedy Krieger Institute where she leads federally funded research related to understanding and optimizing outcomes in children with varying types and severities of acquired brain injury. \nKeith Owen Yeates\, PhD\, ABPP\, FCAHS\, FRSC\, is a Professor of Psychology\, Pediatrics\, and Clinical Neurosciences at the University of Calgary in Alberta\, Canada. He has a 35-year track record of funded research focusing on the outcomes of childhood brain disorders\, especially traumatic brain injury and concussion. Dr. Yeates is inaugural Chair of the Canadian Concussion Network and Editor-in-Chief of Neuropsychology. He has served as President of the Society of Clinical Neuropsychology and of the International Neuropsychological Society. He is a Fellow of the American Psychological Association\, Canadian Academy of Health Sciences\, and the Royal Society of Canada. \nIncludes 1 ACBIS CEU.
