Departmental Research Activities

 
The faculty and students in the Department of Respiratory Care are very involved in research.  The following poster presentations were made at the American Association for Respiratory Care International Congress in Las Vegas, NV, December 11-14, 2006. The author whose name is underlined made the presentation.

The faculty and students in the Department of Respiratory Care were very involved in research during the summer of 2005.  The student/faculty group submitted 13 abstracts to the American Association for Respiratory Care.  All were accepted for presentation at the AARC International Congress in San Antonio, TX, December 2005. The author whose name is underlined made the presentation.
