Who Should Attend R2K Research Conference?

Pediatric Therapy Network's thirteenth annual research symposium, R2K, was a tremendous success! Thank you to all who attended and contributed to the dynamic learning environment. The weekend was filled with exceptional presentations of outstanding research on early development, sensory integration, and movement.

R2K originated through the collaborative efforts of the Research Advisory Council and the staff of Pediatric Therapy Network. Each year the conference is designed to build collaborative relationships between researchers and clinicians so that research relevant to practice is facilitated and utilized for the benefit of the individuals and organizations utilizing therapeutic services. R2K 2012 continued this tradition, drawing even greater connection between research and clinical practice.

This year PTN honored the following clinicians for their outstanding contributions to child development:
