We value collaborative research that is innovative, interdisciplinary, patient, caregiver, and family-centered, and which can be translated into practice or health policy.
We believe firmly that performing and publishing research findings is insufficient for the 21st century academicians; it is critical for us to disseminate research findings into the real world to help people.
