Kara Radzak (Kinesiology and Nutrition Sciences) received the 2017 National Athletic Trainers’ Association Foundation's New Investigator research grant for her study titled “An Evaluation of the Prevalence and Effectiveness of Care Provided by Athletic Trainers in a Military Population.” The work will characterize the care provided by athletic trainers to cadets within Army Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) programs, evaluate the estimated direct costs, and identify health care needs within ROTC battalions that could be addressed by athletic trainers. As the primary investigator, Radzak will oversee work conducted within ROTC programs at UNLV, Indiana University, Auburn University, Penn State University, University of Central Missouri, and University of Hawaii at Manoa.
