Developmental Neurorehabilitation

Aims & Scope

Developmental Neurorehabilitation aims to enhance recovery, rehabilitation and education of people with brain injury, neurological disorders, and other developmental, physical and intellectual disabilities.

Although there is an emphasis on childhood, developmental disability can be considered from a lifespan perspective.

This perspective acknowledges that development occurs throughout a person’s life and thus a range of impairments or diseases can cause a disability that can affect development at any stage of life.
