Research Agenda Establishment Survey Overview

Survey Overview

The Future of Chiropractic relies on ongoing, high-quality research. To best achieve this according to our collective goals, we need to establish a relevant research agenda. Please complete the following questionnaire to help us determine the most important topics that the chiropractic profession should prioritize regarding future research efforts. Our goal is to create a research agenda (and priority list) containing what you, as important chiropractic stakeholders, believe to be the most critical topics in chiropractic research.

With limited funds, we need to ensure the most important topics are given the highest priority first. 
*** The survey is estimated to take 14 minutes to complete depending on your responses***
