Additionally, he has devoted more than 25 years working on research aimed to better understand the causes and risks for developing cerebral palsy, and helping to find possible preventative and treatment options. He and other members of the Division of Pediatric Neurology also have broad experience in diagnosing and managing children with motor delays and other causes of motor impairment, including incoordination, dyspraxia, nerve and muscular disorders and disorders of brain formation and function.
