Dr. Rabatin's main research interests focus on function, development, and wellness of pediatric patients. The patient populations of interest are broad including patients with disability, typical development, traumatic brain injury and sports needs (general and adaptive). All these populations have need for physical activity to promote function, development and wellness. The long-term goal of her research is to determine evidence-based interventions with multidisciplinary teams including for example Pediatrics, Pediatric Orthopedics, PM&R and Anesthesia, to promote and support function, development and wellness of pediatric patients.
