Linda McLean

Linda McLean is a Full Professor at the University of Ottawa's School of Rehabilitation Sciences, with adjunct appointments at Queen's University, Université Laval, and the University of Alberta. Her research focuses on women's health, particularly pelvic floor dysfunction, urinary incontinence, and neuromuscular assessment.

• 1998: Doctorate in Interdisciplinary Studies (University of New Brunswick)
• 1995: M.Sc. in Electrical Engineering (University of New Brunswick)
• 1990: B.Sc. in Physiotherapy (McGill University)

Through the Motor Function and Measurement Lab (MFM Lab), she develops innovative tools for pelvic floor assessment and conducts clinical trials on traditional interventions.

Key research areas include:

• Urinary incontinence mechanisms
• Sexual dysfunction etiology
• Postpartum pelvic health
• Neuromuscular diagnostic methods
• Rehabilitation outcome prediction
• Biomechanical assessment tools
