Healthcare providers' budgets are shrinking and are expected to shrink in the foreseeable future. Our clients demand that we prove that every dollar spent is justified. Research provides architects with the justification necessary to prove that what we design actually adds value to the bottom line. This conference will deal with incorporation of research into design practice: finding resources, application and initiation of research within the practice.
Special member pricing for AIA, AHP, WSSHE, ASHRAE and government employees.
