Special thanks to all the students that stopped by the Foundation For Physical Therapy Research booth at the 2019 Combined Sections Meeting. The 2018-2019 Pittsburgh-Marquette Challenge coordinators enjoyed hearing about your fundraising ideas and events. If your school is not on The List yet, there’s still time to get involved. Don’t wait though, the Marquette Challenge deadline is April 18, 2019.

Funds raised will help support researchers, like Eric Anson, PT, MPT, PhD who was recently awarded the Pittsburgh-Marquette Challenge Research Grant to study the effects of virtual reality (VR) balance training intervention on fear of falling and self-motion perception.
