An Occupational Therapist's Role in Person-Centered Design | Rebecca Langbein | TEDxJeffersonU

Learn about Occupational Therapy and the intersection of engineering, psychology, and healthcare. Rebecca Langbein is in her third year, pursuing her clinical doctorate in Occupational Therapy(OT) at Thomas Jefferson University. An avid runner, dedicated daughter and sister, self-proclaimed nerd and bookworm, Rebecca is constantly inspired to learn about all of the things OT practitioners can do to empower clients and even communities. Having designed a program integrating engineering, psychology, and ethics during undergraduate studies at Lehigh University, her dream is to someday blend her passions in order to design environments and technologies that will provide more equitable opportunities for participation among all people. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
