At last year's Association of Chiropractic Colleges – Research Agenda Conference (ACC-RAC), Palmer College of Chiropractic faculty, staff and students participated in an incredible 30 percent of the poster and platform presentations during the conference. Palmer's presence was again unmistakable at this year's ACC-RAC event, March 14-17, with faculty, staff and students from all three campuses providing 18 platform presentations and nine posters during the conference. In addition, three presentations won awards at the conference, and Palmer faculty and staff members served as session moderators and helped lead six workshops.
