Centre for Person Centred Research

Overview

The Centre for Person Centred Research (PCR) is an interdisciplinary research centre. PCR conducts international level research in rehabilitation and disability. The Centre's focus is on 'rethinking rehabilitation', with our ultimate goal being to optimise real world outcomes in the context of injury and illness. The core principle underpinning our approach is person-centredness. This philosophy informs who we are, what we research and how we do it.
