Description
This award supports research that advances health informatics and innovation in nursing education, particularly through the use of data analysis and health information technology. Funded projects may include the integration of technology into academic learning environments, development of new roles for nurses and nurse educators as information specialists, evidence-based best practices for point-of-care technology, and innovative approaches to integrating health informatics across curricula. The program aims to foster research that translates nursing informatics concepts into practice, expands future nurses’ roles, and creates educational technologies to enhance learning in nursing education.
