Marco Zaccagnini

Marco Zaccagnini

Agency: CIHR

Marco Zaccagnini is helping respiratory therapists (RTs) keep up to date with the latest research, a challenge they face due to heavy workloads, lack of recognition and limited training opportunities. He seeks to design and implement a micro-credentialing program, by RTs and for RTs, to teach them the effective use of evidence-based practice, which combines research, clinical expertise and patient preferences.

Working with Professor Ian Graham of uOttawa's School of Epidemiology and Public Health, Zaccagnini will produce short, flexible and affordable educational micro-credentials that promote continuous learning and improvement for RTs.
