Dr Lee Barber
Lee Barber joined the QCPRRC as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow in early 2012.
Lee is a NHMRC Early Career Fellow and Senior Physiotherapist who has a great interest in how treatments for children with spastic type cerebral palsy, such as botulinum toxin and surgical techniques improve walking ability, impact on muscle growth, and muscle and tendon structure and function. He draws on his diverse experiences as a practicing physiotherapist, a biomechanics and an exercise physiologist to develop and use a number of innovative techniques including ultrasound, 3D motion capture, freehand 3D ultrasound, surface EMG and dynamometry to measure in vivo muscle and tendon structure and function during limb movement and gait. Lee has published a number of manuscripts in international peer reviewed journals and his research has been well received at cerebral palsy, physiotherapy and biomechanics conferences nationally and internationally.
