Walter Michael Strobl

Dr. Walter Michael Strobl, MBA, is a Researcher at the Center for Health Sciences and Medicine, part of the University for Continuing Education Krems. He specializes in pediatric orthopedics, neuroorthopedics, and neuromuscular disorders, with a focus on cerebral palsy treatment, sensory processing deficits, and musculoskeletal comorbidities in children with neurological conditions. His work bridges clinical practice and research, emphasizing evidence-based interventions and multidisciplinary care.

Strobl’s research spans sensory dysfunction in cerebral palsy, gastrointestinal involvement in neuromuscular disorders, and the efficacy of surgical interventions like selective dorsal rhizotomy. He co-authored the textbook Kinderorthopädie und Neuroorthopädie verstehen (2024), contributing chapters on diagnostic approaches, motor development abnormalities, and treatment principles.

His recent publications highlight the need for long-term studies on pediatric interventions and address underrecognized issues such as sleep quality and pain management in neurologically impaired children. Strobl frequently presents at international symposia and workshops, focusing on topics like orthotic utility in neuroorthopedics and early detection of motor disorders.
