Conducting Research

As a medical anthropologist teaching and conducting research in a department of occupational therapy, I am constantly challenged with considering how I can contribute to the education of clinicians, enhance the knowledge base on rehabilitation issues, and work with rehabilitation specialists to improve clinical outcomes. Over the last several years a growing number of researchers and educators have been exploring the benefits of combining anthropology, disability studies, occupational science, and occupational therapy for the purposes of cross-training and knowledge expansion. One only has to skim through the articles in this special issue to appreciate the scope and variability of these efforts.
