Our second-year cohort has officially jumped into their acute care class! From oxygen lines to assistive devices, they’ve been hands-on practicing real-world patient scenarios and building the clinical skills they’ll soon bring into the clinic!

A few weeks ago, our students had the incredible opportunity to travel to Mexico alongside the UC Physical Therapist Assistant, Occupational Therapy, Audiology, and Medical Laboratory Sciences programs to provide pro-bono services to local communities. Experiences like these are a meaningful reminder of the impact compassionate care can have, while also giving our students valuable hands-on clinical experience. It is always inspiring seeing them growing as future physical therapists while making a difference beyond the classroom.

Our incoming first years had the chance to get to know the second-year class, making it a great way to kick off the semester together. Huge thank you to our PTSO board for organizing such a great event!

Help us welcome Audrey M. Johnson, PT, DPT, PhD, to our department as an Associate Professor!

Dr. Johnson brings a wealth of experience in acute care clinical practice, interprofessional education, ICU recovery research, and pro bono clinical services. She earned all four of her degrees from the University of Kentucky and has an incredibly diverse clinical background, including work in acute care, rehabilitation, outpatient settings, wound care, and travel physical therapy. Passionate about mentoring the next generation of physical therapists, Dr. Johnson is dedicated to creating meaningful learning experiences and continuing the legacy of the mentors who inspired her along the way. Outside of the classroom, she stays active as a newly certified yoga teacher, enjoys paddle boarding, spending time with her rescue dog, and visiting family across the country.

We’re so excited to have her as part of our community - be sure to say hello when you see her around!

Last week, our first-year DPT cohort had the opportunity to participate in the University of Cincinnati CAHS Scholarly Showcase! Throughout the semester, students developed research posters in their Interventions course, exploring topics they’re passionate about within the field. The showcase was a great opportunity to highlight their hard work, share their findings, and engage with the incredible projects presented by peers across the college!

We want to give a big shoutout to our professor, Dr. Laura Iglar, who has been such a valued part of the UC DPT family over the past few years! Dr. Iglar has helped guide first-year students through exam courses, teaching the hands-on skills that bring evaluation to life, and she has made a lasting impact in and out of the classroom. Our students have truly loved learning from her, and while we will miss her, we’re so excited for her as she begins a new chapter in her career!
