Dietetics Practice Section Forum: From Inquiry to Impact: Embedding Research and QI into Nutrition Workflows

• Practical strategies for embedding data collection, QI initiatives, and research protocols into standard clinical routines.
• Real-world advice on navigating institutional hurdles, securing stakeholder buy-in, and managing time constraints.
• Tips for leveraging multidisciplinary teams to elevate the impact of your projects.
• Connect with fellow RDs to share ideas, discuss ongoing projects, and find potential collaborators for future multi-center initiatives.

How do we bridge the gap between clinical intuition and evidence-based advancement? As nutrition support professionals, we identify clinical questions and workflow inefficiencies daily, but finding the time, structure, and resources to turn those insights into formal research or Quality Improvement (QI) projects can feel daunting.

Join the Dietetics Practice Section for an interactive forum and networking event designed to empower clinicians to become active contributors to nutrition science. This session brings together a panel of expert practitioners who have successfully integrated research and QI methodologies into their everyday workflows in a range of dietetics practice settings.

Whether you are looking to launch your very first unit-based QI project or want to expand your existing clinical research portfolio, this forum will provide the inspiration and practical toolkit to elevate your practice from the bedside to the literature.
