The Mission
To advance the science and practice of IPC through infection-preventionist informed and led research and implementation science.
What is the APIC Research Network?
A collaborative research environment intended to facilitate and prioritize infection-preventionist informed research while enhancing frontline infection-preventionist participation in research and implementation science.
How is the ARN Structured?
There are three levels of participation in the ARN
- Individual Membership
- Healthcare Organization Membership
- Industry Partner Membership
All ARN activities are guided by a Research Advisory Panel (RAP) composed of senior researchers who ensure scientific rigor across all initiatives. Upon joining the network, each member completes a comprehensive survey to help ARN align research priorities and facilitate communication around the most relevant initiatives.
