Knowledge Translation in Performing Arts Medicine: Part II

This is Part II of our Knowledge Translation in Performing Arts Medicine webinar. In this webinar, attendees will be introduced to popular knowledge translation frameworks and will learn how to practically apply these frameworks to bridge the gap between research and practice. We will explore various knowledge translation strategies to help integrate research into the everyday practices of performing arts medicine. Additionally, participants will hear from one of our performers on the importance of using clear, accessible language when navigating the healthcare system and understanding the care they receive.
While this is Part Two of our series, you don’t need to have attended the first session to join this one—everyone is welcome! This session is designed to empower practitioners, artists, and educators to unlock the full potential of knowledge translation, ensuring that research can be effectively applied to enhance the health and well-being of the performing arts community.
