A warm welcome from Katie De Luca, Chair, Research Foundation, Chiropractic Australia, click here
More than a year has passed since we connected in person to share research directly related to chiropractic or osteopathic practice. This year the Researchers’ Day will aim to connect us all again in a COVID-19 safe environment, join us as we learn about new research and where this will lead us.
In line with our commitment to ensuring the safety and wellbeing of all of our valued Members and Presenter, we have responded to present circumstances by deciding to deliver the Researchers’ Day virtually on Friday, 27 August 2021.
            [EventDescriptionShort] => 
Chiropractic Australia is an organisation that supports evidence-based practice and, as such, is a strong advocate for high-quality research.
Through our related research fund, Chiropractic Australia Research Foundation, we are able to fund research projects and PhD scholarships that directly support the chiropractic profession as well as related healthcare professions.


Chiropractic Australia Research Foundation calls for scientific abstracts to be submitted for presentation at the Researchers’ Day.
