Introducing the ISRC Research Hub

We’re excited to announce the launch of the ISRC Research Hub, a new space dedicated to showcasing respiratory care research happening across Illinois! This hub is designed to connect students, clinicians, and educators, providing a place to share projects, highlight innovation, and support the next generation of respiratory care researchers.

If you’re completing a research project as part of an accredited educational program, contributing to a clinical study, or advancing evidence-based practice, the Research Hub is for you. By sharing your work, you can inspire others, foster collaboration, and help strengthen respiratory care across the state.

Why the Research Hub Matters:

Highlights innovative projects and discoveries in Illinois

Encourages collaboration between RTs, students, and academic partners

Supports professional growth and evidence-based practice

We look forward to seeing your research and projects come to life here. Stay tuned—this hub will continue to grow, with submission guidelines evolving under the guidance of the Education Committee.

Check out the Research Hub today and be part of Illinois respiratory care innovation!

Kaylah Reece, Chapter Three representative is exploring what ISRC members really want from our conferences, with a focus on Chapters 1 and 3. She’s looking for your honest thoughts, ideas, and feedback to help shape future events that are useful, engaging, and worth your time.
