ENACT
The Center for Enhancing Activity and Participation among Persons with Arthritis (ENACT) is a non-profit research center founded by Dr. Keysor on October 1, 2010 at Sargent College, Boston University. The Center was established to advance, disseminate, and apply knowledge in rheumatological rehabilitation—an interdisciplinary field that integrates rheumatologic, musculoskeletal, neurological, behavioral and social systems to optimize activity and participation among persons with arthritis. It was awarded a $4,000,000 Rehabilitation Research and Training Center (RRTC) grant from the National Institute on Disability and Rehabilitation Research (NIDRR) as the sole NIDRR RRTC focused on arthritis. ENACT will engage in research, training of students, and dissemination of information to academics, medical professionals and persons with arthritis.
