The Research Institute brings together scientists whose expertise includes medicine, surgery, nursing, occupational therapy, physical therapy, speech- language pathology, engineering, epidemiology, biostatistics, psychology and more.

Having the Research Institute onsite promotes collaboration and innovation. Children, families, therapists and researchers work together to identify real-world problems and develop products or treatments.
