Participants should keep in mind the sharp distinction between the goals of research (to gather information for future use) and treatment (to care for the patient in front of you).

How long did we struggle to explain this distinction in the DOR? This is so amazingly succinct and clear. Thank you for this.

This point leads back to my original statement about the goals/agendas of the different constituencies served by the national PD orgs. Successsful marketing depends on correctly identifying audiences and their unique wants and needs. So, if we are going to make headway with the DOR, maybe we start here.

Any thoughts?
