USD Hosts Eighth Annual Occupational Therapy Research Conference
The University of South Dakota hosts its eighth annual Occupational Therapy Research Symposium today, May 4, in the Muenster University Ballroom.
The keynote address will be delivered by Renee Taylor, vice provost for faculty at the University of Illinois at Chicago, at 9 a.m. Taylor’s presentation will explore the “Intentional Relationship Model,” an internationally validated, empirically-based guide to practice that emphasizes the use of six modes of interacting: advocating, collaborating, empathizing, encouraging, instructing, and problem solving.
The conference will also include small group discussions, research breakout sessions, an awards banquet and networking session.
