Cecilia Lidbeck

I am an assistant professor, pediatric physiotherapist, PhD, at the Neuropaediatric Unit, Department of Women's and Children's Health, Karolinska Institutet, and at the Motion Analysis Laboratory, Astrid Lindgren Children's Hospital, Karolinska University Hospital. In Professor Boström’s research group, I lead a Team with interprofessional collaboration. My research is mainly on exploring factors of importance for motor functioning and walking in children with cerebral palsy and other movement disorders. I have a special interest in the sensorimotor relationship, including, vision, sensation and perception of importance for movement and posture, and in movement analysis.
