This thread has got me wondering - are there many other OTs out there (other than the academics for whom I guess it's a condition of employment) that get to do research in association with their clinical practice?
At my workplace there's certainly an expectation that this takes place - as we present at conferences at least annually. Have yet to have anything published in a peer reviewed journal though am preparing something for a stab at that at present.
