Description:Research plays a vital role in the World Trade Center (WTC) Health Program. In Part I of 9/11 Health Research and Care we explained how member participation in research provides new insights into WTC-related health conditions and supports those who need ongoing treatment and monitoring following their exposure on 9/11. In Part II, you will learn more about how 9/11 research aids in the care of our members.
Members of the WTC Health Program receive limited health care through a network of carefully selected clinics and providers nationwide. To ensure care is effective for treating conditions connected to 9/11 exposures, the WTC Health Program uses research translation.
Research translation is the practice of using science to inform healthcare decisions. The WTC Health Program uses research translation to understand how 9/11 exposures can lead to illness and uncover the most effective ways to treat that illness. To accomplish this, experts like medical professionals, researchers, and Program officials work together to translate research into care.
