Research
We develop and advance scholarship, research and initiatives to promote health, prevent disease and eradicate health disparities.
Our students and faculty research on an extraordinarily diverse set of topics, including patient safety, chronic illness, integrative health and self-management, interprofessional education, and biomarker discovery. They lead community-based health research initiatives, direct transdisciplinary research collaborations and spearhead nationwide multi-partner projects.
Their findings influence the future of health care delivery, patient care and nursing practices.
Office of Research, Scholarship and Innovation
The Office of Research, Scholarship and Innovation is dedicated to provide resources, opportunities and community for nurse scientists through:
- Creating a collaborative, productive research and scholarship environment that fosters rapid discovery, dissemination and implementation
- Providing innovative solutions that promote health, prevent disease and eradicate health disparities
- Integrating research into the fabric of nursing education to stimulate curiosity, problem solving and discovery earlier in the nursing education process
- Creating a culture of collaboration across specialties and priorities within the School of Nursing to prepare for a rapidly changing research environment
In addition to supporting nurse scientists with administrative resources, hosting workshops and facilitating mentoring opportunities for researchers, the office is home to the Biobehavioral Research Laboratory and the Langston Center for Innovation in Quality and Safety.
