StrokEngine 

StrokEngine is a database of research compiled by the Canadian Stroke Network. This site focuses on stroke rehabilitation and interventions. StrokEngine was created with the goal of bridging the gap in knowledge translation between research findings and current clinical practice. This site can be used to find the most current information about the value of the various interventions used in stroke rehabilitation.

Information is derived from quality articles, websites and systematic reviews. All have been reviewed using a systematic process.

ERRIS - Enhancing Rehabilitation Research in the South

Under the direction of Dr. James A. Blackman, MD, MPH of the University of Virginia, Enhancing Rehabilitation Research in the South (ERRIS) is designed to provide an infrastructure that will increase the quality and quantity of rehabilitation research in the region as one of four research networks funded by the National Center for Medical Rehabilitation Research (NCMRR). All etiologies and age groups are included although there is a relative focus on central nervous system injury and pediatric through young adult populations.
