Join the Saint Louis University Program in Physical Therapy for the annual Irma Ruebling Distinguished Speaker Series:

Building a Clinical Research Program: 
The View is Different from the Inside
presented by
Jennifer Stevens-Lapsley, PT, Ph.D.
Dr. Stevens-Lapsley is a professor and director of the Rehabilitation Science Ph.D. Program in the Physical Therapy Program at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Center.

She is focused on identifying, integrating and advancing innovative evidence-based medicine solutions for older adult rehabilitation through highly effective research methods and partnerships. She has 20 years of clinical research experience in patients after joint arthroplasty, and more recently, medically complex patient populations.

Her research ranges from understanding the mechanisms of skeletal muscle dysfunction to studies of implementation of best rehabilitation practices in post-acute care settings. More specifically, her research includes the evaluation of pragmatic interventions in medically complex patient populations and health services research to understanding how rehabilitation services impact hospitalization rates and functional performance.

Her clinical research has resulted in numerous publications (100+), national and international speaking invitations, and awards such as the Marian Williams Award from the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA). Over the past decade, she has received over $14 million dollars to support her clinical research.

This event is complimentary but registration is required to receive the event link. Please register by March 23.
