Lianne Brkic is a researcher affiliated with Newcastle University, focusing on neurological rehabilitation and stroke recovery. Her work emphasizes the application of wearable technologies like accelerometers to enhance motor function recovery in stroke patients. She has collaborated extensively with clinical researchers including Dr. Lisa Shaw and Emerita Professor Helen Rodgers on projects such as the WAVES and RAFTAS trials. Her contributions include developing repetitive functional task programs and exploring motivational strategies using vibrating alert systems to improve exercise adherence post-stroke.
- Key Collaborations: Dr. Lisa Shaw, Dr. Christopher Price, Emerita Professor Helen Rodgers
- Pilot Trials: WAVES (wristband accelerometers), RAFTAS (repetitive functional tasks)
Her research integrates clinical trials with engineering solutions, aiming to bridge gaps in stroke rehabilitation practices. Qualitative studies investigate systemic barriers to effective therapy delivery in stroke units.
