Noelle Moreau PT PhD is a full Professor at the Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center in New Orleans. Dr. Moreau’s research focuses on the investigation of the neuromuscular mechanisms underlying abnormal muscle function and movement impairments in children with cerebral palsy, using techniques such as ultrasound imaging, dynamometry, and electromyography. Dr. Moreau received her doctoral training in biomechanics with a minor in biostatistics at Louisiana State University and completed a postdoctoral fellowship in movement sciences at Washington University in St. Louis.
Dr. Moreau’s research has been funded through the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Thrasher Research Fund, Pedal-with-Pete Foundation, American Physical Therapy Association (APTA), and the Section on Pediatrics of the APTA. She is currently the principal investigator of two, multi-site R01 clinical trials funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH). Dr. Moreau has published over 25 peer-reviewed manuscripts in high impact journals in her field. The overarching goal of Dr. Moreau’s research is the development of effective rehabilitation strategies to address neuromuscular impairments and improve activity, participation, and quality of life.
