Hope Jervis-Rademeyer, MPT, PhD (she/her/hers)

Postdoctoral Fellow
University of Alberta, Canada

Dr. Hope Jervis-Rademeyer is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Alberta under the supervision of Dr. Chester Ho. She received a PhD in Rehabilitation Science from the University of Toronto in 2022 and a Master of Physical Therapy from the University of Saskatchewan in 2017. Her broader research interest is in implementing neurorestorative approaches to rehabilitate individuals with spinal cord injury (SCI) (i.e., functional electrical stimulation cycling, exoskeleton, brain-computer interface, epidural stimulation, activity-based therapy). Currently, her postdoctoral research focuses on national and international collaborations to develop a model of SCI care and to implement functional electrical stimulation cycling for SCI rehabilitation. Dr. Jervis-Rademeyer is the creator and co-host of the podcast Spinal Moves: Canadian conversations about ABT. She has also produced the Bare Bones Podcast designed to improve understanding of bone health after SCI.
