Achieving IMproved outcomes for children with Cerebral Palsy 

AIM CP is an interdisciplinary research project which seeks to achieve improved outcomes for children with cerebral palsy. It is a collaboration across the Schools of Medicine, Engineering and Psychology in Trinity. The project is collaborating with the Central Remedial Clinic.

There are four interrelated PhD projects:

AIM2Sleep

Motion Analysis

Profile and Priorities

Modelling

AIM2Sleep is currently completing an anonymous online survey with parents of primary school aged children In Ireland. It will determine the sleep profile for primary school children. For some children how a child sleeps can impact on both the child and their family and this will provide important information to inform service development in Ireland. The participant information leaflet for parents can be accessed here.
