RRTC Disability Experience Expert Panel (DEEP) Collaboration with UCLA AIR-P Project

Recently, the Nisonger Center’s Disability Experience Expert Panel (DEEP) collaborated with UCLA’s Autism Intervention Research Network on Physical Health (AIR-P) to translate their research article “How Are Medical and Dental Schools Teaching Students About Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities?” into a clear language product.

Their research is studying how medical and dental schools are preparing their students to serve individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

UCLA is part of the Association of University Centers on Disabilities (AUCD), a membership organization that supports and promotes a national network of university-based interdisciplinary programs.
