Featured Quote:

"It is exciting to be a part of a forward thinking group of physical therapy educators with a goal to foster and inspire excellence and innovation in physical therapy education, research, and practice. While the PTLI Board Members have diverse backgrounds, ideas, and experience, we are unified in our desire toward excellence. I am personally inspired by this aspiration and also by the collective wisdom of my colleagues on the Board. Physical therapy education has come a long way and we owe much to the previous influencers of positive change in our profession. However, we should not be complacent. PTLI has taken up the charge to build on that momentum to ensure that the future of physical therapy reaches new heights."
