Last month, Mindy Renfro, PT, PhD, GCS of Montana's Rural Institute MonTECH programs, presented information at the annual Combined Sections Meeting of the American Physical Therapy Association in Indianapolis, IN.

The panel looked at Fall Prevention in Special Populations. Renfro focused on older adults with developmental disabilities. The session was attended by over 350 PTs from across the country and a research collaboration project was planned with researchers from the U.S. and New Zealand.
