This lectureship honors the legacy of Dr. Pauline Cerasoli who was a leader and pioneer in physical therapy education and who reimagined an innovative and bright future for the profession. This 2018 Lectureship titled "Coddiwomple" is divided into 3 mini talks. The first talk takes a 20-year look back on physical therapy education processes/inputs and products/outcomes to understand where we have been and how we arrived at this moment in physical therapy education. A second talk proposes that there are critical sea changes and forces at work seeking to transform physical therapy education as a result of external drivers, namely, disruptive innovation and technologies, big data analytics, and the transformation of health profession relationships. Given these changes, several critical course corrections are proposed for the future to include the implementation of collaborative shared leadership models, application of design thinking, and expanding partnerships for large scale population solutions. In conclusion, this lecture proposes that physical therapy education is cautioned not to default to "Coddiwomple" but rather to travel in a purposeful manner directed toward an intentional future given the many sea changes at work.

Purpose: To examine associations between clinical measures (self-reported and clinician-administered) and subsequent injury rates in the year after concussion return to play (RTP) among adolescent athletes.
Methods: We performed a prospective, longitudinal study of adolescents ages 13-18 years. Each participant was initially assessed within 21 days of concussion and again within 5 days of receiving RTP clearance from their physician.

The study aimed to determine if virtual reality (VR) games could enhance neuromuscular control and improve anticipatory and compensatory strategies in ball-kicking for soccer players. It was a single-blind randomized clinical trial involving 32 male soccer players with chronic ankle instability. Participants were divided into two groups: VR games and balance training.

Chronic pain and restricted mobility, hallmark features of rheumatic diseases, substantially affect patients' quality of life, often resulting in physical disability and emotional distress. Given the long-term nature of these conditions, there is a growing interest in complementary therapeutic approaches, emphasizing the need to explore non-pharmacological treatments. Hydrotherapy, balneotherapy, and mud therapy have emerged as effective interventions to alleviate pain, reduce inflammation, improve joint mobility, and enhance overall physical and mental well-being.

Although the connection between muscular strength and flatfoot condition is well-established, the impact of corrective exercises on these muscles remains inadequately explored. This study aimed to assess the impact of intrinsic- versus extrinsic-first corrective exercise programs on muscle morphometry and navicular drop in boys with flexible flatfoot. Twenty-five boys aged 10-12 with flexible flatfoot participated, undergoing a 12-week corrective exercise program, with a shift in focus at six weeks.

Resolvin D1 (RvD1) is an endogenous anti-inflammatory mediator that modulates the inflammatory response and promotes inflammation resolution. RvD1 has demonstrated neuroprotective effects in various central nervous system contexts; however, its role in the pathophysiological processes of intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) and the potential protective mechanisms when combined with exercise rehabilitation remain unclear. A mouse model of ICH was established using collagenase, and treatment with RvD1 combined with three weeks of exercise rehabilitation significantly improved neurological deficits, muscle strength, learning, and memory in ICH mice while reducing anxiety-like behavior.
