Brian C. Coleman, DC, MHS, is an Assistant Professor of Emergency Medicine and Biomedical Informatics at the Yale School of Medicine and Assistant Professor of Biostatistics at the Yale School of Public Health. As a clinician-scientist, his health services research combines biomedical informatics and implementation science to study nonpharmacologic interventions for musculoskeletal pain. He is a K08 Clinical Scientist Career Development Award recipient from the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NIH) and a member of the World Federation of Chiropractic's Research Committee and Global Patient Safety Initiative.
Kristi Hudson is the VP of Business Relations for ChiroHealthUSA and Administrator of the Foxworth Family Chiropractic Scholarship. She currently serves on the board for ChiroCongress Cares, is the Fundraising Chair for the Chiropractic Strategic Plan, and a member of the Chiropractic Summit. She has worked within the chiropractic profession for 12 years and hosts one of the largest webinar series within the chiropractic profession.
Over twenty years' experience has garnered Dr. Brandie Keates acclaim as an industry visionary and vanguard in the world of pregnancy chiropractic care. She has made it her life’s mission to globally disrupt the prenatal care status quo by posing a simple thesis: if sports medicine acknowledges athletes' unique requirements for physical care to allow their best performance during the game, then pregnant women must be able to expect the same during their pregnancies.
She strives to champion her patients and women worldwide through their pregnancy journeys with fierce advocacy. She’s not only out to influence change; she exists to put an end to the notion that women are supposed to accept pain as the norm and simply keep on going.
Dr. Brandie's performance has resulted in awards such as the High Honor of Clinical Excellence Award from Cleveland University-Kansas City, 2020 President’s Award for Service Chair for The Pediatric Group, Publishers Award for MainLine Parent, PCA Presidents 2020 Service Award, MainLine Parent Love Award, and most recently, The U.S. SBA’s Eastern PA District Office 2023 Woman-Owned Small Business of the Year.
Dr. Brandie credits her two children as the catalysts for her meaningful career in chiropractic. With one suffering a birth injury and the other facing intense health risks in-utero that prohibited Dr. Brandie from working, chiropractic care became the solution that she never saw coming. Their inspiration has been a profound driving force ever since.
Michael Schneider practiced as a Doctor of Chiropractic for over 25 years before becoming a fulltime academic researcher and professor at Pitt and now director of the Doctor of Chiropractic program. He received his PhD in Rehabilitation Science from the University of Pittsburgh in 2008 and a Certificate in Clinical Research from the Institute for Clinical Research Education in 2009. He has authored over 100 peer-reviewed publications.
Schneider brings existing NIH funding to the Doctor of Chiropractic program to lead chiropractic research and oversee postdoctoral researchers. Schneider has a strong record of NIH funding from the National Center for Complementary and Integrative Health (NCCIH) and the Patient Centered Outcomes and Research Institute (PCORI) as both principal investigator and co-investigator.
Schneider has taught post-graduate chiropractic continuing education courses for over 25 years. Over the past six years, he has co-led the Pitt Primary Spine Practitioner certificate program that brings together physical therapists and chiropractors from around the country, Europe and the Middle East to train as first-contact providers for patients with spinal problems.
Schneider has received both the Presidential Award and Researcher of the Year Award from the American Chiropractic Association. He also received the Distinguished Service Award from American Public Health Association, Chiropractic Health Care Section.
