Our foundation will make a significant contribution to improve the scientific knowledge, quality and application of care in the field of musculoskeletal conditions. It will do so by supporting, facilitating and advocating the translation and implementation of research and by empowering committed researchers to handle their daily challenges. All research funded by the Swiss Foundation for Chiropractic Research shall have a clear emphasis on musculoskeletal conditions and shall create added value for patients, third party payers, policy makers and chiropractic professionals.
