Associate Professor
University of Missouri
Dr. Boone is an Associate Professor at the University of Missouri and director of the Optimal Performance & Enhanced Neurorehabilitation (OPEN) Lab, which seeks to develop and evaluate clinically feasible assessments and interventions to support evidence-based neurorehabilitation. The ultimate goal of this research is to improve performance of meaningful everyday activities and quality of life for individuals with acquired brain injury (i.e. stroke, traumatic brain injury, cancer-related cognitive impairment). Specifically, the OPEN laboratory evaluates (1) psychometric properties of cognitive assessment tools, (2) efficacy of functional cognitive interventions in neurologic populations, and (3) optimization of rehabilitation interventions.
