Welcome to Ausderau Lab!
We are a lab coordinated by Karla Ausderau in the department of Kinesiology – Occupational Therapy at the University of Wisconsin – Madison. Our research focuses on studying the daily occupations of different groups of people and how those occupations ultimately impact, health, well-being, and overall daily participation. We work with a variety of community partners to ensure the voices of those we study are present in our research. For more on our current research, visit our ‘Projects’ tab.
