Bio/Research
Dr. Shaun Boe is an Assistant Professor in the School of Physiotherapy at Dalhousie University. His research examines adaptations that occur in the peripheral and central nervous system due to disorders of the motor system and in response to their treatment(s). To achieve this, Dr. Boe utilizes a number of techniques, including quantitative electromyography, functional magnetic resonance imaging, electroencephalography, magnetoencepahlography and cortical stimulation. The overall objectives of his research program are twofold: 1) to expand our fundamental understanding of how the nervous system adapts in health and disease; and 2) to utilize this understanding to guide the way we treat individuals who experience motor deficits (i.e., after a stroke). Collectively, the goal of this research is to inform clinicians with regard to both diagnostic and rehabilitative applications in an effort to optimize the potential for recovery'
