Our guest is Winston Kennedy, a 3rd year PhD student in the Kinesiology program and Adaptive Physical Activity option, has been a practicing Physical Therapist since 2015. Over time, he noticed his patients with mobility limitations were trying to perform their rehabilitation exercises at home but they received inadequate support or guidance from other medical personnel because the gym or their personal home was not conducive to these physical exercises. Winston also noticed that physical mobility limitations can also impact someone’s mental health, and as a PT his patients would have greater success if both the physical and mental hurdles were considered. It’s these barriers to successful rehabilitation programs that Winston is examining in his research project with the aim of making physical therapy more inclusive to any patient who could benefit. Winston is also a Grad Inspire keynote on March 3rd, be sure to mark your calendars! Hosted by Kayla Delventhal and Adrian Gallo.

Inspiration Dissemination is an award-winning radio program that occurs Sunday nights at 7PM Pacific on KBVR Corvallis, 88.7FM. Each week on the program, we host a different graduate student worker from Oregon State University to talk about their lives and passion for research here at the university. By presenting these stories, we can present the diverse, human element of graduate research that is often hidden from the public view.
