Are herehome » about nih » what we do » the nih al institute of nursing research (ninr)ative mission of the national institute of nursing research (ninr) is to promote and improve the health of individuals, families, and communities. To achieve this mission, ninr supports and conducts clinical and basic research and research training on health and illness, research that spans and integrates the behavioral and biological sciences, and that develops the scientific basis for clinical practice. From premature infants in neonatal intensive care units, to adolescents living with diabetes, to elderly cancer survivors coping with pain, nursing research develops the science to help people strengthen the quality of their lives. Nursing science transcends the boundaries of disease and research disciplines to better understand the experiences of individuals and families living with illness and to develop personalized approaches that maximize health and well-being for individuals at all stages of life, across diverse populations and settings. Ninr’s scientific programs encompass the following topics: symptom science, wellness, self-management of chronic conditions, end-of-life and palliative care, innovative technologies, and training nurse ninr strategic plan: an ed in 2016, ninr’s strategic plan: advancing science, improving lives, focuses on areas of science in which the health needs are greatest, and in which ninr-supported research can have the largest is organized around four areas of scientific focus: symptom science, wellness, self-management of chronic conditions, and end-of-life and palliative care. Two other areas, promoting innovation and developing the nurse scientists of the 21st century, are emphasized in all areas of ninr’s research future research directions of these focus areas were shaped through the innovative questions (iq) initiative, an initiative by ninr to encourage new thinking and creativity from the broader scientific community and general public.

In addition, the council reviews the institute’s extramural programs and also makes recommendations about its intramural research ch centers division of extramural science programs maintains oversight of a nationwide research centers program.
The research centers program is designed to increase research capability and expand the science of nurse scientists working on multiple projects by promoting collaboration between groups and across institutions, through the use of shared resources and expertise. The collaborative approach to research typified in the research centers has been found to be valuable in producing outcomes that transform the results of research into current practice settings. The ninr research centers represent a continuum of institutional research programs at different stages of development, each with unique needs and potential. They are funded through the following grant mechanisms:Exploratory center (p20) grants target schools of nursing to build research teams of the future and fund new programs, expand or modify existing resources, and conduct feasibility studies to explore various approaches to the development of interdisciplinary programs that offer potential solutions to problems of special significance to the mission of the ninr. The p20 may lead to center sustainability and/or the ability to be funded through other specialized or comprehensive s of excellence (p30) grants are designed for institutions with demonstrated research success, support interdisciplinary collaborative research programs among established investigators in specific areas of basic and/or clinical research of strategic interest to ninr. The purpose of the ninr p30 centers is to: (1) develop sustainable interdisciplinary, biobehavioral research capacity for scientists conducting nursing research by establishing centralized research resources and a research infrastructure; (2) advance the center’s thematic science area through complementary, synergistic research activities; and (3) enable feasibility research that will develop into new programs of research and independent investigator research 2016, ninr supported a total of 16 centers. Of these, six new 2016 ninr-funded centers aim to develop sustainable interdisciplinary biobehavioral research programs for nurse scientists conducting research into the self-management of symptoms. All of the ninr research centers will enable support for the development of research infrastructures and centralized resources in support of independent nursing research programs. They will also serve to advance ninr’s goals of expanding research capacity, promoting sustainability, and increasing training ural research training and career offers a range of extramural training awards and ruth l. Kirschstein national research service awards (nrsa) are given to individual fellowship applicants selected for award as a result of national competition for research training in specified health-related areas. Nih awards nrsa individual postdoctoral fellowships (f32) to the most promising applicants to support full-time research training related to the mission of the nih awarding components. The ninr t32 award program enables institutions with schools of nursing to make nrsa awards to individuals, who are nurse scientists, for pre-and postdoctoral research training in acute and chronic illness across the lifespan, focusing on health promotion, disease prevention, health disparities, hiv/aids, aging, caregiving, management of symptoms, self-management, and care at the end of development supports several career development awards funded through the k01, k23, k24, and k99r/00 postdoctoral and established investigators, the k01 mentored research scientist development award provides for a period of additional mentored research experience with an expert mentor as a way to gain expertise in an area new to the candidate or that would demonstrably enhance the candidate’s scientific career. For nurse scientists with a clinical focus who are performing patient oriented research, ninr encourages research in the areas of symptom management, pulmonary, critical care, trauma, reproductive health, genetics, epigenetics, behavioral research, incorporation of advanced technology and end-of-life and palliative care using the k23 participates in the nih pathway to independence (pi) award, which offers another excellent opportunity for highly promising, postdoctoral research scientists. This award uses the combination k99/r00 funding mechanism and is designed to facilitate receipt of an r01 award earlier in an investigator's research career. The pi award provides up to 5 years of support consisting of two phases: 1–2 years of mentored support (k99), followed by up to 3 years of independent support for career transition (r00), contingent on securing a tenure-track research position. Award recipients are expected to compete successfully for independent r01 support from nih during the career transition (r00) career development awards offered by ninr’s office of extramural programs include the midcareer investigator award in patient-oriented research (k24). This free online training provides an introduction to research grantsmanship for new doctoral graduates and early career 2016, ninr released a series of videos titled, “building and sustaining a scholarly career. The videos provide an overview of opportunities and dilemmas often encountered by midcareer scientists as they work to develop a sponsored project into a successful and sustained program of research (por). Senior and midcareer scientists and an ninr program officer discuss significant guideposts, useful strategies, and lessons on of intramural maintains a robust intramural program on the nih campus in bethesda, maryland, dedicated to conducting basic and clinical research on the interactions among molecular mechanisms underlying a single symptom or cluster of symptoms and environmental influences on individual health outcomes. The division of intramural research (dir) program encompasses the individual variability inherent in symptoms associated with digestive disorders, cancer-related fatigue, traumatic brain injury, cardiovascular related disorders, congenital muscle disease, and post-traumatic stress disorders as well as clinical interventions to alleviate these 's laboratories leverage the benefits of the highly collaborative research environment of the nih intramural research community, where scientific partnerships are readily established and the nursing science community can take full advantage of resources, infrastructure, and mentoring opportunities available at nih. The trial is ongoing and additional clinical studies are in planning m management symptom management branch is dedicated to improving the understanding of the underlying biological mechanisms of a range of symptoms, their effect on patients, and the biological and behavioral basis for how patients respond to symptom management branch consists of three units: genomic and clinical biomarkers, symptom biology, and cardiovascular genomic and clinical biomarkers unit conducts research to discover biomarkers within an environmental and clinical context, to predict patient outcomes and guide therapies specifically in solid-organ transplant recipients, but also expanding to other diseases/disorders and patient populations. Additional research will target individuals at high risk for heart disease and personalize therapeutic biobehavioral branch supports research into the interplay of behavioral, biological, and environmental determinants of health and wellness across populations.
The biobehavioral branch consists of the digestive disorders unit and the clinical neuroscience digestive disorders unit seeks to discover the mechanisms involved in symptom distress related to digestive disorders, specifically the biobehavioral relationships between brain-gut microbiota axis and patient symptoms, to aid in the discovery of novel targets for treatment of patients with these ural research training and career is committed to developing the next generation of nurse scientists and provides research training through several mechanisms. Summer internships allow for an intensive 8-week research experience within the dir and accept students from many levels — from high school to medical school students. Post-baccalaureate training positions are available that allow bsn-prepared nurses and other science-focused bs graduates interested in exploring a research career in nursing or other science disciplines to spend a year engaged in biomedical investigation in dir laboratories. Prepared nurse scientists to perform research in the dir and to hone their skills in basic and clinical also offers mentored research support to post-doctoral intramural investigators via the k99 mechanism. Known as the pathway to independence award, it is designed to facilitate transition of the postdoctoral scientist to independent, tenure-track researcher. It also enables receipt of an r01 award earlier in an investigator's research dir supports the graduate partnerships program (gpp). The ninr gpp is a doctoral fellowship training program that coordinates training and funding for phd students attending a school of nursing. The program combines the academic environment of a university with the breadth and depth of research resources available at nih. The goal is to encourage and support the training of nursing doctoral students who are motivated to undertake careers in basic or clinical research. They then have up to 3 years to complete dissertation research within nih’s intramural research programs in bethesda, h the dir, ninr sponsors the summer genetics institute (sgi), an intensive research training program held at nih and administered by the foundation for advanced education in the sciences (faes) as one of its biotechnology specialty programs. The sgi provides a foundation in molecular genetics for use in research and clinical practice and features both lecture and hands-on laboratory training. The purpose of the sgi is to increase the research capability among nursing graduate students and faculty, and to develop and expand the basis for clinical practice in genetics among clinicians. Genetic components involved in organ transplantation outcomes, epigenetic signatures related to cardiovascular disease, genetic factors contributing to high blood pressure, gene-to-gene and gene-environment interactions in childhood asthma); disseminating findings through publications and scientific conference presentations; and integrating genetics content into nursing school curricula across the ninr symptom research methodologies series is a 1-week intensive research training “boot camp” at the nih in bethesda, maryland. The boot camp features lectures by distinguished guest speakers, classroom discussion, and hands-on also participates in the nih lasker clinical research scholar program. The lasker scholar program supports a small number of exceptional clinical researchers in the early stages of their careers to promote their development to fully independent scientists. The program combines a period of research experience as a tenure-track principal investigator in the dir with an opportunity for additional years of independent financial support, either within the dir or at an extramural research leadership in end-of-life research and palliative recent years, many factors have converged to increase public and professional interest in issues surrounding the end of 1997 report from the institute of medicine (iom), approaching death: improving care at the end of life, found widespread dissatisfaction with end-of-life care and many gaps in our scientific knowledge of this phase of life. That same year, ninr sponsored a workshop on the symptoms of terminal illness and the nih director designated ninr as the lead nih institute for end-of-life research. The 2014 iom report, dying in america further reiterated the importance of end-of-life and palliative care the lead nih institute for end-of-life research, ninr supports science to assist individuals, families, and health care professionals in managing the symptoms of life-limiting conditions and planning for end-of-life decisions. This conference served to evaluate the current state of the science in end-of-life care and to determine future directions for research. The consensus statement from this conference is available palliative care research cooperative group (pcrc) was established in 2010 with foundational support from ninr to develop scientifically based methods in the conduct of palliative care multi-site clinical trials that lead to meaningful evidence for improving quality of life for patients with advanced and/or potentially life-limiting illnesses, and their caregivers — including family members and providers of care. The network creates a community of palliative care scientists and clinical trial specialists who can engage in research discovery. Both brochures are copyright free and may be downloaded and reproduced without august 2011, ninr co-sponsored the three-day national summit, the science of compassion: future directions in end-of-life and palliative care.
The summit examined the state of research and clinical practice in end-of-life and palliative care and provided an opportunity for scientists, health care professionals, and public advocates to come together to catalyze and shape the future research agenda for this critical scientific area. The executive summary from the summit is available 2013, ninr published building momentum: the science of end-of-life and palliative care: a review of research trends and funding, 1997–2010. This report looked at the trends in end-of-life and palliative care (eolpc) research publications over the past 14 years, including federal research awards, funding patterns, and the contributions of public and private investments in eolpc science. The report’s focus addresses the 1997 institute of medicine recommendations for the scientific community to strengthen the research landscape, foster new evidence, and define and implement priorities for increasing the knowledge base for eolpc. The key findings of the report not only summarized the state of eolpc research, but also identified gaps that future research efforts could address. The publication is available in 2013, ninr established the office of end-of-life and palliative care research (oepcr) to support ninr’s leadership role in end-of-life and palliative care research at nih. Oepcr coordinates and supports ongoing ninr and nih research efforts in end-of-life and palliative care (eol pc) science, including: stimulation of end of life and palliative care research initiatives; creation of opportunities for collaborative activities; facilitation of interdisciplinary eol pc science; and identification of opportunities for science to inform policy and practice. A major program priority is to coordinate the development, implementation and evaluation of end-of-life and palliative care research in direct collaboration with other nih institutes and centers, federal research agencies and outside constituencies. Information on pain management, types and places of eol care, paying for eol care, what to do when the end comes, coping with grief, and research efforts may also be june 2015, ninr hosted a briefing on the iom report, dying in america: improving quality and honoring individual preferences near the end of life. The briefing reviewed the recommendations, explored possible next steps and barriers to implementation, and provided an opportunity for stakeholder groups to discuss the impact of this report in regard to end-of-life and palliative care in june 2015, ninr and the nih national center for advancing translational sciences/office of rare diseases research co-sponsored the workshop, the spectrum of caregiving and palliative care in serious, advanced rare diseases, which brought together a community of experts in palliative care, pediatrics and adolescent care, oncology, and neurology to examine key priorities and research questions about knowledge gaps in palliative care and caregiving for those affected by rare diseases. The workshop highlighted the need for research focused on the palliative needs of caregivers and families of those facing advanced rare diseases, since most rare disorders have intensive, long-trajectories of illness. A subsequent workshop proceeding and ninr funding opportunity announcement addressing the research gaps identified in this workshop were published in october 2015, the ninr-funded u24 palliative care research cooperative (pcrc) group held a morning session of its bi-annual membership meeting at the nih campus. The pcrc provided an overview of the pcrc infrastructure, mission, and goals by the pcrc leadership as well as current examples of pcrc research capacity and may 2016, ninr was invited to participate in a meeting at the national academy of medicine in washington, dc, to assess national progress toward recommendations from the 2014 report dying in america: improving quality and honoring individual preferences near the end of life and to characterize progress, identify barriers, and collectively determine priority action items. In july 2016, ninr received an official appointment as a representative on a new roundtable on quality care for people with serious illness at the national academies of sciences, engineering and medicine.

Institute of nursing wikipedia, the free to: navigation, national institute of nursing research (ninr), as part of the u. National institutes of health, supports clinical and basic research to establish a scientific basis for the nursing care of individuals across the life span—from management of patients during illness and recovery, to the reduction of risks for disease and disability, and the promotion of healthy lifestyles. L involvement in nursing research can be traced back to 1946, with the establishment of the division of nursing within the office of the surgeon general, public health 1955, the first extramural nursing research program was established in the research grants and fellowship branch of the division of nursing resources, bureau of medical services. At this same time, the national institutes of health (nih) established the nursing research study section within the division of research grants to conduct scientific review of the growing volume of applications in this 1960, public health nursing services were consolidated to form a new division of nursing at what is now called the health resources and services administration (hrsa) - the agency responsible for clinical training in the health care professions. The initial and continuing goal of federal support was to build a foundation for nursing research. Nursing research programs were also funded and research information was exchanged across the impetus for establishing the national institute of nursing research (ninr) came from the findings of two federal studies. A 1983 report by the institute of medicine recommended that nursing research be included in the mainstream of biomedical and behavioral science, and a 1984 nih task force study found nursing research activities to be relevant to the nih mission. These findings resulted in legislative action that established the national center for nursing research (ncnr) at nih in april 1986. The center later became an nih institute with the nih revitalization act of 1993 and a federal register notice on june 14 of that year- both actions formally changing the ncnr to the ninr.
