Scientist
Lawson Health Research Institute
London, Ontario, Canada
Dr. Dalton Wolfe is a Scientist at Parkwood Institute (SJHC London and Lawson Health Research Institute) and an Assistant Professor (part-time) in the School of Health Studies (Faculty of Health Sciences) at Western University in London Ontario Canada.
Dalton leads the R2P (Research 2 Practice) team at Parkwood Institute that integrates clinical and research efforts to improve care and clinical outcomes. This is a clinically embedded group that supports clinical practice through application of implementation science and incorporates a participatory, person-centred approach to build practice-based research initiatives that integrate research and education within clinical practice. This approach has ensured that research questions and resulting initiatives have resonance in the “real world” and have practical application towards the ultimate goal of enhancing health for people with neurological conditions.
Dr. Wolfe’s focus on implementation science and integrated knowledge translation are most often applied to his primary research interests of adapted physical activity and activity-based therapies such as robotic or FES-assisted therapies to support mobility. Dalton co-leads the SCI Implementation & Evaluation Quality Care Consortium (www.sciconsortium.ca) which focuses on implementation of quality indicators towards the enhancement of care across the 5 academic health centres involved in SCI rehabilitation in the province of Ontario, recently expanding to 5 additional centres across Canada. Dalton is also co-editor and contributing member of the SCIRE Research Team (www.scireproject.com), an evidence-based review of SCI rehabilitation.
