June's Research to Clinical Practice: Perceptual-Motor Function

The June issue of Research to Clinical Practice explores how integrating cognitive-motor demands can enhance injury risk assessment and return-to-play (RTP) decisions. Traditional protocols often focus on physical recovery, but this edition highlights the growing importance of perceptual-motor function, reaction time, and sensory processing in safe RTP.
