		<description><![CDATA[For many rehab providers, research remains secondary to treatment. Scientific inquiry—both time-consuming and expensive—must be relegated to the background due to the enormous demands of the clinic. At MossRehab, however, a team devoted entirely to research operates within the infrastructure of the rehabilitation hospital. Collectively called the Moss Rehabilitation Research Institute (MRRI), these researchers work [...]]]></description>
