Personal Protective TechnologyOutputs: Research to PracticeHistorically, NIOSH has been a leader in applying research into workplace solutions that reduce injury and illness. Research to Practice (r2p) is a NIOSH initiative focused on the transfer and translation of research findings, technologies, and information into highly effective prevention practices and products which are adopted in the workplace. The goal of r2p is to increase workplace use of effective NIOSH and NIOSH-funded research findings. NIOSH continues to work with our partners to focus research on ways to develop effective products, translate research findings into practice, target dissemination efforts, and evaluate and demonstrate the effectiveness of these efforts in improving worker health and safety. Outreach ActivitiesNIOSH has participated in the following conferences over the past several years to disseminate NIOSH PPT information and update PPE users and stakeholders on research, certification, and standards development activities.
