Siobhan Reid is Senior Lecturer in the School of Human Sciences at UWA. With 20 years experience in clinical biomechanics, her expertise lies in understanding human movement and exercise rehabilitation for those with disabilities, particularly neuromuscular disorders such as Cerebral Palsy. Siobhan is the Course Coordinator for the Masters of Clinical Exercise Physiology program and the Combined Bachelor-Masters in of Clinical Exercise Phsyiology. She teaches across Motor Control and Clinical Paediatrics & Disability at UWA. Siobhan is also Leads the School's Paediatric Exercise Programs, which offer movement & physical activity opportunities for children aged 3 to 18 years, who have difficulty learning fundamental movement skills participating in physical activity.

Siobhan teaches across a number of units in the School of Human Sciences including;

SSEH3555 - Motor Development: Principles to Teaching in Practice

SSEH5667 - Clinical Paediatrics & Disability

SSEH5645 - Workplace Injury and Prevention

Siobhan's broad area of interest lies in rehabilitation for those with neurodevelopmental disability and disease. Specifically;

• Evidence based practice in the management of children with cerebral palsy
• Musculoskeletal and neurodevelopmental pathways in cerebral palsy
• Exercise rehabilitation and physical activity for children with neurodevelopmental disability, movement and mental health disorders
