Doctoral Programme in Physiotherapy
- Musculoskeletal disorders. This research line delves into different alterations and dysfunctions of the musculoskeletal system that can occur in different environments (work, sports, leisure, etc.), as well as the study of suitable therapeutic approaches that can be treated with physiotherapy.
- Neurological disorders. This research line works on the difficulties derived from injuries of neurological origin, whether congenital or acquired throughout the life cycle. This line contributes to the study and characterisation of different populations, as well as to their treatment in any of the phases of evolution of the different conditions.
- Cardio-respiratory disorders. This line of study explores the knowledge of alterations, both of cardiac and respiratory aetiology, both in humans and in the experimental field for the analysis of their repercussions and their physical treatment.
- Public health, health management and prevention. This line develops studies related to problems linked to public health and health management, and explores in depth aspects of resource management, patients, etc. In addition, the design of preventive programmes of both first and second order is considered to be of special relevance in this line.
- Ageing processes. This line has a double aspect. On the one hand, it goes deeper into the analysis and functional recovery of ageing processes and, on the other, it deals with aspects related to the social and health care of people at this age.
