Biography and Research Information
OverviewAI-generated summary
Rebecca R. Smith's research focuses on functional recovery after spinal cord injury in animal models, particularly utilizing swimming as a task-specific locomotor retraining method. Her work has investigated the effects of swimming on hindlimb function in rats following spinal cord contusion, exploring factors such as the timing of swim training initiation and its potential to induce adverse effects like extravasation. Smith has also examined novel multi-system functional gains achieved through task-specific training in spinal cord-injured male rats.
Her research employs specific assessment tools, such as the Louisville Swim Scale, to measure functional recovery. Smith has published on the precise methodology for inducing spinal cord contusions to discriminate small functional differences. Her scholarship metrics include an h-index of 19 with over 1,200 citations across 52 publications. She has collaborated with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, including Kyle J. Kalkwarf, Allison Jenkins, Richard Betzold, and Brett Bailey.
