If you’d like to get in touch with fellow researchers, the Transforming Chaplaincy community is ready to help. The experts below have graciously volunteered to discuss chaplaincy with researchers interested in research literacy in practice, education, and administration. They’re leaders in their fields and their service is one of Transforming Chaplaincy’s greatest strengths. We encourage you to reach out, get acquainted, and see how they can help you contribute to research literacy and improve patient outcomes.
