New AJOT Series: Authors and Issues
- What goes on behind the scenes in a research lab?
- Can a reader ask questions directly to an author?
- How can I find out more about a topic covered in one of AJOT’s "The Issue Is" articles?
A new AJOT series, Authors and Issues, answers those questions, and more!
Led by AJOT’s editor-in-chief, Stacey Reynolds, one article in each new issue is selected for a deep dive into the content with the authors and invited guests via Zoom. The Zoom recordings are then posted to CommunOT for viewing and asynchronous discussion. Authors and guests moderate the online discussion and answer questions for 1 week. The recordings and discussions are archived on CommunOT.
Upcoming Topics
- August 2022: Lifestyle Redesign
