The Communicative Health Services and Systems lab is part of the School of Communication Sciences and Disorders in the Faculty of Health Sciences at 澳门六合彩开奖预测. Research conducted in the lab is practiced-based and aims to to ensure outputs are both meaningful and useful to end users, the scientific community, and society at large by:
- Capturing the outcomes of services for preschool children with communication disorders
- Creating new functional and participation-focused clinical tools, procedures, and programs to support evidence-based practice; and
- Changing practice using principles of knowledge translation and implementation science, and through the co-creation of knowledge with clinical end users (parents, clinicians, administrators, policy makers).
The lab is directed by Dr. BJ Cunningham, an assistant professor in the School of Communication Sciences and Disorders. Trainees in the lab include graduate students in the Health & Rehabilitation Sciences program and undergraduate students, often in the Faculty of Health Sciences. In addition to traditional reserach training, students learn how to work within health services to make reserach findings applicable and meaninful in the clinical context.
