The N-ECCO Research Grant, offered by the European Crohn’s and Colitis Organisation (ECCO), is designed to promote and advance innovative scientific research in the field of IBD Nursing across Europe. The grant specifically encourages the participation of IBD nurses—particularly those with limited research experience—in international research projects under the guidance of a senior researcher who acts as Principal Investigator. The program aims to strengthen the research capacity of IBD nurses, foster the training of junior nurses, and increase the impact of nursing research within the IBD community.
