A Leader in Research

The Parker University Research Center coordinates and facilitates the development and execution of a research agenda consistent with the overall mission of Parker University. That agenda has led to the advancement of the University within the scientific/professional community and contributed sound scientific evidence that supports public health and the chiropractic profession, education, business and technology.

 

 

 

 

 

RESEARCH EXCELLENCE AT PARKER UNIVERSITY

Winter 2023
 
 
Research Center Announcements
 
Central Research Training (CRT)
Launches


                                                         

The Central Research Training (CRT) is a series of training modules covering a number of important research-related topics. This course has been added to all faculty accounts in Blackboard -  Central Research Training RSCHT-0000.

 
Butterfly Garden
 
 
Non-Wall Damaging Wall Decal

Included in the CRT is the Scientific Review Committee, or Butterfly Garden.
 
To start, there are no butterflies. Sorry! The Butterfly Garden is simply the least threatening name we could come up with for an official, university-based scientific review committee. Our goal is to facilitate more research at the University, and we're hoping not to scare anyone off before they even get started. The goal of this garden/committee is to provide a judgement-free space for faculty to submit research topics and designs and receive constructive feedback from in-the-field scientists.

The Scientific Review Committee meets on the 15th of each month. Proposals are due to the committee for consideration on the 1st of the month. Proposals can be emailed to research@parker.edu.
 
 
Parker University Research
Data Repository

                                                         

The Parker Research Center is developing an institutional research repository that will collect, manage, preserve, and provide open access to research conducted at Parker University. Institutional repositories play a critical role to support current and up-and-coming open access policies and funders requirements for research information management. They are powerful vehicles to host and share accumulated knowledge, showcase a university’s accomplishments in research, and earn peer recognition. Currently, Parker’s Library and Research Center personnel are working to gather data on abandoned/incomplete projects that had data collected from participants within the last eight years to include in the repository that will be hosted within Parker’s Library. You may receive an email from Amanda Watkins, Asst. Director of Research Administration, asking you to provide information for inclusion of a project in the repository. More information will be shared as the repository is created and becomes part of the regular process to conduct research here at Parker University. Thank you for your support in ensuring that Parker University is current with ever evolving regulations and mandates.
 
 
Parker Graduates Earn Recognition
 
 
 
                                                         
Fall 2023 graduates Austin Parker, Anna McAlinn, Alex Crouch, Cassandra Cantu, and Angelina Caride received recognition for Research Excellence at the Fall 2023 graduation luncheon.

Austin, Anna, and Alex also received the designation of Research Honors. Dr. Chris Malaya, clinician scientist,  was on hand to deliver the awards.

at 2023 WFC Research Congress,
Including Top Award
 
Parker University was well represented at the 17th WFC Biennial Congress in October in Gold Coast, Australia. Twenty Parker faculty, students, and administrators contributed to sixteen presentations (including posters, workshops, platforms and a keynote) at the event.
 



Dr. Martha Funabashi, an adjunct research faculty member, and Dr. Katherine Pohlman, professor and Director of the Research Center, were recipients of the prestigious Scott Haldeman Award for Outstanding Research Excellence. They co-authored a presentation titled, "Defining and Classifying Adverse Events Following Joint Manipulation and Mobilization: An International E-Delphi Study." This significant achievement underscores the valuable contributions made by these esteemed professionals to the research field. Congratulations to Dr. Funabashi and Dr. Pohlman on this well-deserved recognition!
 
 

eClinicalMedicine Journal
Publishes Core Outcome Sets (COS)
 

Pain stands as the leading factor contributing to disability among adults worldwide. By combining data, core outcome sets (COS) possess the potential to revolutionize pain management and care. Several researchers from across the globe authored a manuscript published in eClincalMedicine that outlines the development of four distinct, comprehensive core outcome sets (COS) aimed at promoting global data harmonization for various pain categories. Ensure you are up-to-date with this information by reading the article here.

Faculty Research Incentive

Parker University has a research incentive program of cash awards to non-research faculty, staff, and students for their involvement in research. The program is designed to encourage participation in research and help shape the research culture of the University.

Faculty, administration, students, and staff of the University (who are not dedicated research personnel) are eligible for participation in the program. Co-authors who are not from Parker are not eligible.

To be considered for an award, participants must submit an application.
