  I was a research physical therapist on an R01-funded prospective cohort study, investigating the role that specific clinical impairments play in the pain-related disability and physical function of older adults with chronic low back pain. The focus of my dissertation work was developing and testing various aspects of a conceptual model for mobility decline among older adults with chronic pain.
