OT Summit of Scholars at Sargent

In June 2017, Sargent hosted the annual Occupational Therapy Summit of Scholars, where OT researchers shared their work and networked. One major topic of discussion was how interdisciplinary collaborations can lead to the discovery of innovative solutions to research questions on health and disability. The summit also provided PhD students, post-docs, and junior faculty with professional development opportunities. In addition to the summit’s 170 attendees, 30 entry-level graduate OT students from throughout the US and Puerto Rico attended a one-day Future Scientists Institute, which provided them with an overview of OT research careers.
