Saybrook Alumna Ann Williams, PhD ’05, has Co-Authored an article in Science Translational Medicine calling for an end to the practice of barring people with physical disabilities from participating in some research studies.
In her article Practicing and Implementing Changes Through CWRU’s Federally-Funded FIND Lab, she asks researchers “to rethink participation criteria that exclude people with sight, hearing or mobility problems, or other disabilities.”
Wiliams is an Associate Professor and Research Associate in the Frances Payne Bolton School of Nursing at Cayse Western Reserve University.
