Biography

Alain Leroux joined the Department of Exercise Science at Concordia University in 1999 as a lecturer and was promoted to Assistant Professor in 2001, receiving his PhD in Rehabilitation Science from McGill University. He was further promoted to Associate Professor in 2006. Dr. Leroux's main research interests focus on the rehabilitation of hemiparetic subjects due to stroke. His research findings are encouraging, demonstrating that individuals who have suffered a stroke can recuperate physical functions through participation in community-based exercise programs. Notably, his research shows that significant functional improvements can occur years after individuals have ceased conventional rehabilitation treatments. Dr. Leroux studies the relationship between physical exertion and postural stability in hemiparetic subjects post-stroke and is currently affiliated with the Center for Interdisciplinary Research in Rehabilitation of Greater Montreal.
