The TSS Group is committed to building and maintaining partnerships with community and system agencies. We know that good communication is key to successful partnerships. We also understand that research can only make a difference when it gets into the hands of those who can use it.

Given those values, we’re happy to share new research findings, study progress and news with our partners in our Trauma Research Notes blog.
