Caitlin Hill is a registered physiotherapist with 14 years of clinical experience in musculoskeletal and neurological caseloads, including time as a clinical educator at Central Queensland University (CQU) in Rockhampton. Caitlin has taught a wide range of content in exercise and sports science and physiotherapy at CQU, covering anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology, biomechanics, motor control and learning, sports injury prevention and rehabilitation, and sports medicine.
