About
Suzann K. Campbell, PT, PhD, FAPTA, is Professor Emerita and former Head, Department of Physical Therapy, at the University of Illinois at Chicago, and has published more than 60 peer-reviewed articles. Her group's NIH-funded research on assessment of infants with movement disorders resulted in publication of the Test of Infant Motor Performance (TIMP), a functional motor scale for newborns which was normed on 990 U.S. infants and is used in more than 40 countries. The TIMP has been translated into French and Portuguese and a standard Chinese translation is in the planning stages. Dr. Campbell currently is Managing Partner of Infant Motor Performance Scales, a publishing and education group, which recently launched an e-Learning course for health professionals interested in learning the TIMP.
