簡歷

丘經緯博士於香港理工大學接受物理治療教育及訓練，是一位擁有豐富臨床經驗的註册物理治療師。他畢業後曾於本地公立醫院執業超過十年，並於不同的臨床崗位工作，服務範疇遍及深切治療至社康物理治療，並對治療筋肌骨骼病症、於日常工作運用各種運動治療方法及處理慢性痛症病人特別感興趣。

為實踐其對康復治療研究發展的興趣和對教育下一代的抱負，丘博士到澳洲悉尼大學進修並取得醫學碩士(疼痛管理)學位，其後於香港中文大學獲得哲學博士(麻醉及深切治療)學位。憑藉其在學術及研究上的卓越表現，丘博士於攻讀博士學位時獲頒數個奬學金支持。在加入理大康復治療科學系前，他於香港中文大學接受博士後培訓，負責統籌多個為衰弱病人預備的術前復康研究計劃。丘博士的研究興趣包括各種運動治療、衰老症管理、圍手術期復康及疼痛管理。

丘博士除擔任本學系助理教授外，他還獲邀兼任香港中文大學麻醉及深切治療學系之客席助理教授，更獲選為香港物理治療師協會之委員。
