Steven L Wolf, PT, PhD, FAPTA

Dr Wolf has given much to the physical therapy profession through his teaching, research, and service. He has an extensive publication record of more than 100 peer-reviewed publications that reflect his interest and expertise in biofeedback, neuromuscular re-education, and management of patients with chronic pain, among others. His work spanned the basic science areas early in his career and has shifted more recently to large-scale clinical research that corresponds to the most urgent need within the profession of physical therapy. Dr Wolf's influence has reached beyond the United States, and he is a much sought-after lecturer internationally. As a researcher, he has had a profound effect as one of the most consistent and productive researchers. Over his career, he has been a part of 37 funded peer-reviewed grant proposals, and he is listed in more than half as either the Principal or Co-Principal Investigator. The funding totals an astounding $30 million.

His profound experience as one of the cutting-edge researchers in physical therapy and as a superb educator and his international reputation—in addition to his many contributions to the professional association—have qualified him for this highest award the Association can provide.

Dr Wolf's distinguished career is highlighted by numerous awards, including the Marian Williams Research Award, Gold Pen Award, Catherine Worthingham Fellow of the APTA, Lucy Blair Service Award, Helen J Hislop Award for Excellence in Contributions to Professional Literature, the Foundation for Physical Therapy's Robert C Bartlett Recognition Award, the Section on Geriatrics Outstanding Published Paper Award, and the Neurology Section Outstanding Research Award.
