Research and Experience Delivery (RED) was created when a graduate student researcher and a health care practitioner realized the full potential of connecting academics and practitioners. By connecting these two groups, more consistent and effective health care delivery was a likely outcome.

There is a well-known and widely accepted communication gap between researchers and practitioners, but this problem is not unique to the field of health care. We want to close this chasm in health care and work towards this same goal in other fields of research and practice.
