Defending Nursing Science on Capitol Hill
Fiercely proud that two of our own, associate dean for nursing research Jeanne Alhusen, a disability rights advocate, family nurse practitioner, and an NIH-funded nurse scientist, and alumnus Michael Cary, a Duke University School of Nursing professor and nurse researcher - were joined by nursing dean Toni Villarruel and patient advocate Ms. Joseph at a "Powered by Evidence" briefing on Capitol Hill last week Tuesday, July 22, hosted by the American Academy of Nursing and the American Association of Colleges of Nursing, an effort to highlight the impact and reach of nursing science.
LEARN MORE about how SCIENCE ADDS VALUE FOR EVERYONE (SAVE) at the link below . . . and, if you're curious about what life is like for a nurse scientist with a PhD, email Jeanne or attend an upcoming PhD Zoom Admissions Info Session. Fewer than 1% of nurses ever earn a PhD, but the world has never needed them more! |
