title: Music therapy: fertile ground for application of research in practice.
abstract: When participating in research studies in the clinical setting it is important to remember the goals of the interventions under study. Frequently the parameters and design of the research, while necessary to validate findings, are not written in stone for future application. It is possible to consider other situations in which the intervention might be applied that lie outside the current research protocols. To fully utilize research findings, apply them to your own unique practice and then set up your own study using the original work as a starting place.
