The function of the OPTA Research Fund is to promote and support research studies relative to clinical practice, education or administration which will enhance the profession of physical therapy. This is provided through grants for approved activities. OPTA RESEARCH FUNDING OPPORTUNITY The OPTA Research Committee is pleased to announce the annual call for applications for OPTA's small grant program.
