Podcast #56 - Epidemic Answers and Documenting Hope: Researching the Science of Reversing Chronic Illness in Children
Dr. Sharon Stills interviews Drs. Martha Reed Herbert, Randall Reiserer, and Heather Tallman Ruhm from Documenting Hope in today's episode. Documenting Hope is a research project hosted by Epidemic Answers looking to support children who are in recovery from chronic illnesses. This project scientifically documents the amazing stories of recovery from illnesses that are often considered “incurable.” We've heard many anecdotal stories of healing, but who is chronicling them, or studying the stressors and supports that modulate different complex illnesses? The team at Documenting Hope, that's who! Researchers partner with clinicians, families, and health coaches to simultaneously heal children's chronic illnesses, and document the journey along the way. Tune in today to learn more about this groundbreaking initiative that is reinventing the scientific research process as we know it.
