Katie Kowalski is an Assistant Professor, Teaching Scholar in the School of Physical Therapy. As an educator, researcher and clinician, her overarching goal is to enhance musculoskeletal patient care and outcomes. Sound clinical reasoning underpins effective and safe musculoskeletal rehabilitation, and patient outcomes are improved when clinical reasoning is advanced. Katie’s program of research is focused to optimizing the development of musculoskeletal spinal pain clinical reasoning along the novice expert continuum, using mixed methods approaches with cross-sectional and longitudinal observational study designs; specifically using a comprehensive assessment to identify mechanism-based subgroups of low back pain to inform approaches to stratified care.
