The VPTA PSIG would like to congratulate Shaaron Brown, PT, DPT, and Stacey Dusing, PT, PhD, PCS, from the Physical Therapy Department at Virginia Commonwealth University for receiving the Knowledge Translation Award from The Academy of Pediatric Physical Therapy at Combined Sections Meeting 2019 in Washington, D.C.!  They received this award for demonstrating how clinician-researcher collaboration supports acquisition of new skills, development of clinically relevant knowledge, and creation and implementation of practice protocols. Practice changes included development of referral guidelines, assessment and intervention protocols, and negotiating technological limitations to integrate best practice in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and NICU follow up. Congratulations Dr. Brown and Dr. Dusing!
