The Allied Health Professions Research Network (AHPRN) was first founded as the National Physiotherapy Research Network (NPRN) in 2004. The AHPRN regional hubs welcome students, new and experienced researchers, clinicians, managers, consultants and academics from all Allied Health Professions with the aim of increasing research capability and capacity within, and between, the professions. The network currently centres around 21 registered regional research ‘hubs’ and is able to provide research support by way of: •peer review •advice on research training and funding opportunities •mentorship schemes •sharing good research practice •disseminating recent research outcomes ...and many, many more ways. Through providing excellent opportunities for networking and for collaborative clinically-based research, the AHPRN will enhance research outputs across each of the professions and facilitate translation of research findings into education and practice, to further increase the research credibility of the Allied Health Professions.
