Degenerative Diseases SIG: Bridging the Gap Between Research, Data Collection and the Clinic with Ryan Duncan – Episode 8

On the 4D: Deep Dive into Degenerative Diseases podcast Ryan Duncan talks to first-time host Katy McGraw about his career path from an entry-level PT working as an outcomes assessor to a primary investigator on his own clinical studies. Along the way, he gives great advice on how to use research methodology to improve clinical practice and how to get involved in research as a DPT. Ryan also discusses some of his upcoming research including delving into low back pain in people with PD and physical therapy interventions for people with deep brain stimulation. A great listen for anyone who has considered the research side of PT but isn’t on the path to a PhD! For show notes click here.
